Notes

  • NOTE ON PASTA: You can use any type of short cut pasta such as macaroni or penne if you don't have Cavatappi on hand.
  • NOTE ON BAKING: If your stove top pot isn't oven proof, pour the casserole mixture into an oven safe 9x13 inch dish before topping with the provolone, then bake as directed.
