If you haven't been hiding under a rock you've heard of Pinterest, aka heroin for adult women! This recipe has circulated Pinterest once or twice and every time I see it come through I'd think, that looks SO good! Finally I had a night where I knew I wanted a pasta dish (wait, isn't that every night?!) however I didn't feel like the same old thing and that is when I remembered this gem. I had all the ingredients, as you probably do too, and whipped it up with the help of my sous chef, Riglee.
Was it good? It was phenomenal! The noodles are coated with a cream cheese mixture and when Baked with the sauce on top, the sauce just melts down between the noodles. I think a 9x13 pan of this was gone the next day because we ended up eating the leftovers for dinner the next night too. And if you have kids, a guaranteed crowd pleaser!! This will definitely make the comfort food rotation in my casa!
