Ham and Cheese Rotini














Ham and Cheese Rotini

1 pkg.(13 oz.) whole wheat rotini
1/4 cup butter or margarine
1/3 cup all purpose flour

2 cups milk
salt and pepper to taste
1 cup + 1/3 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
2 cups fully cooked cubed ham

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cook pasta according to package directions until al dente.

Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, melt butter or margarine. Stir in flour and pepper until smooth and cook for a few minutes, or until thickened. Gradually whisk in milk, stirring to prevent lumps. Bring to a boil, cooking for 2 minutes or until thickened. Remove from heat and stir in cheeses until blended.

Drain pasta. Add ham and cheese mixture; stir well. Season to taste. Pour into a greased 9 x 9 baking dish and sprinkle with additional Parmesan cheese. Bake uncovered for 25-30 minutes, or until bubbly.
