Ingredients:
- 1 (28 oz.) can Dei Fratelli Chopped Italian Tomatoes, drained and rinsed
- 1 (16 oz.) package Rotelle Pasta
- 4 Tbsp. Unsalted Butter
- 1/4 Cup Flour
- 4 Cups Milk
- 4 Cups Sharp Cheddar Cheese, shredded
- 1/2 tsp. Salt
- 1/4 tsp. Black Pepper
- 2 Cups Broccoli Florets, chopped small
- 4 Cups Croutons, crushed
Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 350 F.
- Boil water in a large pot. Cook pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
- While pasta is cooking, melt butter on medium-low heat in a second pot. Add flour and whisk well to create a paste. Slowly whisk in milk and cook over medium heat until the sauce is a velvety consistency, about 5 minutes, stirring constantly.
- Add cheese and stir well to combine. Continue cooking until cheese is melted, about 5 minutes.
- Fold in cooked pasta, Dei Fratelli Chopped Italian Tomatoes, and broccoli. Combine well and pour into a 9×13 baking dish. Top with crushed croutons and bake for 20 minutes.
Chef's Tip:
No croutons on hand? Why not try topping with toasted breadcrumbs, crushed potato chips, or crumbled cheese-flavored crackers!
