Recipe : Rigatoni with Three Cheeses

Mozzarella, Parmesan and fontina bring macaroni and cheese into a sophisticated--
but still familiar--realm. To round out the meal and keep cleanup to a minimum, pop a
vegetable casserole such as Ciambotta in the oven, too.

Makes 4 servings

6 ounces rigatoni pasta
1/2 cup skim milk
1 1/2 ounces skim-milk mozzarella cheese, shredded
1 1/2 ounces fontina cheese, grated
1/4 cup minced fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 tablespoon minced fresh thyme leaves (or 1 teaspoon dried leaves, crumbled)
1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper
3/4 ounce Parmesan cheese, grated

Preheat the oven to 425o F. Spray a 1-quart baking dish with nonstick cooking
spray; set aside.
In a large pot of boiling water, cook the rigatoni according to package
directions. Drain and return to the pot. Stir in the milk, mozzarella and fontina
cheeses, parsley, thyme and pepper.
Spoon the rigatoni mixture into the prepared dish and sprinkle with the
Parmesan. Bake 15-18 minutes, until golden and bubbling. Let stand 5 minutes.
Divide evenly among 4 plates and serve.
