Ingredients

  • 1 (16 ounce) package uncooked rigatoni pasta
  • cup butter
  • 1 clove garlic, crushed
  • cup cubed sharp Cheddar cheese
  • cup cubed Gouda cheese
  • cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • cup blue cheese dressing
  • cup milk
  • Paprika, to taste
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Directions

  1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the rigatoni pasta and cook for 8 to 10 minutes until al dente. Drain the pasta and return it to the pot.
  2. In the same pot with the pasta, add the butter and crushed garlic. Stir over low heat until the butter has melted and the garlic is fragrant.
  3. Gradually add the cubed Cheddar, Gouda, and Parmesan cheeses, stirring constantly. Be sure to keep the heat low to prevent the cheese from becoming stringy.
  4. Slowly incorporate the blue cheese dressing and milk into the cheese mixture, stirring continuously until the pasta is evenly coated with the creamy sauce.
  5. Season the pasta with paprika, salt, and pepper to taste. Stir well, ensuring the seasoning is distributed evenly.
  6. Once the pasta is coated and the sauce is smooth, serve immediately. Enjoy!
