Creole Mac & Cheese Spaghetti

Creole Mac & Cheese Spaghetti


1/2 cup bread crumbs
1+ tbsp parmesan cheese
1-2 tbsp butter
7-8 oz package spaghetti (we like using quinoa pasta or "Barilla plus")
1 cup frozen corn (and/or peas)
6 oz. (1 1/2 cups) shredded cheddar
2+ tsp creole seasonings (or a mix of salt, garlic, and red pepper)
Thin shreds of prosciutto (or deli ham)



1. Pre-heat oven to 300 degrees.
2. Cook pasta according to directions. Add corn/peas when 3 minutes remain. Drain and set aside when time is up.
3. Put 1/2 cup water in sauce pan with the butter and heat to boil. Slowly add cheddar cheese until all melted. Stir in creole seasonings.
4. Mix pasta with cheese. Place in 8 x 8 baking dish. Sprinkle with bread crumbs and prosciutto. 5. Bake at 300 degrees until fully warmed, about 10 minutes.



Notes: This makes about 3 servings, possibly 4 if you're serving a salad or some other side item. The original recipe also said to put broccoli in it, but I can't bring myself to eat broccoli 99% of the time.

Recipe Origination: Mostly original, with some inspiration from a "Better Homes & Gardens" recipe
