Notes
Shred your own cheddar cheese instead of using the pre-shredded type as it will melt more creamy in the pasta dish.
Refrigerate the leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
This recipe is also delicious topped with your favorite taco toppings (lettuce, tomatoes, green onions, sour cream, etc.)
