Four Cheese Pasta Cheesecake Factory
The cheese pasta factory is simple and easy to cook. All you need is to assemble all the ingredients, mix them, and bake them. I usually use ricotta cheese in higher proportions.
Ingredients
- 225 grams Penne pasta
- 1 jar Marinara sauce
- 1 cup Ricotta cheese
- 2 ¼ cups Mozzarella cheese (grated)
- ¾ cup Parmesan cheese (grated)
- 4 Fresh mozzarella bars
- ½ teaspoon Garlic powder
- ¼ cup Fresh chopped basil
- ¼ teaspoon Freshly ground pepper
- 2 Eggs
For Garnishing
- 2 tablespoon Grated parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoon Ricotta cheese
- Salt (as per taste)
- Fresh chopped basil
Instructions
- Take a baking dish and grease it evenly. Turn ON the oven to preheat it up to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Take a large pot and boil water in it. Add some salt to the water. Pour penne pasta into boiling water and cook it till it turns soft. Remove excess water from the pasta.
- While cooking pasta, heat the marinara sauce on medium flame.
- Mix ricotta cheese, mozzarella cheese, basil, pepper, garlic powder, and eggs in a large bowl. Stir these ingredients to make a homogenized mixture.
- Pour heated marinara sauce along with cooked pasta into this cheese mixture.
- Stir it till pasta gets completely coated with mouth-watering creamy sauce.
- Pour this pasta mixture into a greased baking dish. Set mozzarella bars on the top of pasta to create a savory cheesy texture.
- Sprinkle grated parmesan cheese at the end and cover the baking dish with aluminum foil.
- Place it in the preheated oven and cook for up to 25 minutes.
- Remove the aluminum foil and place the baking dish under the broiler till the cheese starts bubbling.
- Garnish the pasta cheesecake by sprinkling a mixture of 2 tablespoons of parmesan cheese, 3 tablespoons of ricotta cheese, salt, and basil. Serve this healthy pasta to your friends and family.
