Quick Penne Alfredo & Cheese

Yeah! I know how to make "real" mac & cheese. But this is so good and simple that I can't justify the work. I hope you try this and put your own spin on it. You could add broccoli, ham or a host of other goodies!

• Ready In: 20 mins
• Serves: 6

Ingredients

• 8  ounces penne or 8  ounces  your favorite pasta, cooked al dente
• 1 (16 ounce) jar alfredo sauce (like Bertolli)
• 8  ounces  assorted cheese, like cheddar, Monterey jack, Swiss (or so!)
•  salt and pepper

Directions

1. Combine the hot pasta, Alfredo sauce, cheese (reserve a little to sprinkle on top) and heat gently over low heat or bake at 375 until bubbly!
2. Feel free to add any of the following: grilled chicken, broccoli, cubed ham, roasted veggies, bread crumb topping, shrimp--hatever you like!
3. Enjoy.
