Pasta with cheese sauce
Description
Just imagine the taste of this dish! Tender pasta in a creamy "Béchamel" sauce with several types of cheese, topped with a delicious golden crust. For me, as a lover of pasta and cheese, this is pure heaven. For the sauce, I recommend using 1-2% low-fat milk, since the butter and cheese already contribute quite a bit of fat.
