Pasta

Pasta sides belong at every cookout and holiday table. For pasta salads, slightly overcook the noodles and dress them while warm so they absorb the flavor; for baked pasta, a well-seasoned cheese sauce is everything.

Bake my Five Cheese Baked Macaroni and Cheese, bring Hawaiian-Inspired Macaroni Salad to the plate lunch, or toss an Antipasto Pasta Salad for the potluck.
