The ingredients listed in this recipe perfectly fit in my 10×14 inch baking dish. share with you my take on an Italian Macaroni and Cheese with Bchamel sauce. Omit these if desired. When stirring the béchamel, be sure to really scrape the bottom to keep it from burning. Today I would like to share with you my take on an Italian Macaroni and Cheese with Bchamel sauce. I added a couple of the optional ingredients, mozzarella and one egg, to help create a more rich and creamy sauce. You can try using your leftover macaroni and cheese in this recipe it would definitely come out cheesier than original, since you have already added. Some of the béchamel recipes I came across only contain butter, flour, and milk. This amount may need to be modified depending on the salt content of the tomato sauce and personal taste. I seasoned the ground beef mixture with about 1 teaspoon of salt. Cover with the béchamel sauce and bake, uncovered, for 30 minutes.Allow to cool for 15 minutes before serving. Pour the meat sauce into a 9 x 12 oven-safe casserole dish. Drain the pasta and add it to the beef and pasta sauce mixture. This dish is traditionally made with penne, but you can substitute with other medium-sized tube shapes (just be careful not to overcook, since they will soften a little more while in the oven). Once the beef is done browning, drain the excess fat from the pan and add the pasta sauce. The macaroni and cheese is baked for 20 minutes, with cheese and milk additions and a thorough stir every 5 minutes. Evaporated milk, hot red pepper sauce, dry mustard, eggs and a large quantity of cheese are stirred into the noodles. To layer: Start with half of the cooked noodles followed by all of the beef mixture, the remaining noodles, then an even layer of the béchamel sauce. The hot, drained macaroni is tossed with butter in a heatproof pan or bowl.
