Number of Servings:
Ingredients:
- 1 boxes - 16 oz. penne pasta
- 2 teaspoons - Adobo seasoning (or garlic salt, black pepper, turmeric and oregano)
- 3 tablespoons - unsalted butter
- 12 ounces - evaporated milk more or less, enough to not dry out or be too moist
- 2 1/2 cups - shredded Parmesan cheese
- 1 cups - shredded Gouda cheese
- 1 - large egg beaten
- 1/2 cups - chopped onion
- 1/2 cups - chopped red bell pepper
- 1 cloves - garlic crushed
- 1/2 cups - to 3/4 cup cubed ham
Directions:
In a large pot, cook pasta according to package directions. Drain and set aside. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
In the same pot, sauté over medium-low heat the bell peppers, onion, butter, garlic, and ham until just tender, but not completely cooked through.
In a large bowl, mix together cooked pasta and beaten egg until mixed well.
Add pasta back to the pot with the vegetables and ham; stir into pasta the adobo seasoning, 2 cups grated Parmesan, 1 cup Gouda and evaporated milk. Stir well.
Pour into a baking dish (the deeper the better, so the pasta will not easily dry out); sprinkle the remaining ½ cup of Parmesan cheese over top of all.
Place pan on the middle rack in oven uncovered and bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour or until top is golden brown. Let sit for at least 10 minutes before serving. Do not leave it on warm setting in the oven or it will dry out.
