How to Make

  1. 1.

    Cook the Pasta Just Right

    Boil a large pot of salted water and cook your pasta according to package instructions until al dente. For this easy cheese pasta recipe, don’t forget to reserve 1 cup of pasta water before draining it, which helps bring the cheese pasta sauce together later.

  2. 2.

    Sauté Garlic for Flavour

    In a medium saucepan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute, or until golden and fragrant. This step gives your three cheese pasta a rich, savoury base.

  3. 3.

    Create a Creamy Base

    Stir in the heavy cream and chicken or vegetable broth, followed by ½ cup of the reserved pasta water. Let it simmer gently for 2–3 minutes. This creamy mixture is the secret to a smooth baked pasta with cheesy texture.

  4. 4.

    Melt the Three Cheeses

    Add diced Britannia The Laughing Cow Mozzarella, grated Cheese Block, and grated Cheezza Block. Stir continuously until all three melt into a velvety sauce. This is what gives the three cheese pasta its signature creamy finish.

  5. 5.

    Combine Pasta and Sauce

    Add the cooked pasta to the sauce and toss well to ensure it’s evenly coated. This step brings your cheese pasta to life with full flavour and perfect texture.

  6. 6.

    Season and Finish with Herbs

    Season your pasta with salt and pepper to taste. Toss in fresh chopped herbs like parsley or basil for a final burst of freshness, an easy trick to elevate any easy cheese pasta recipe.

  7. 7.

    Serve and Garnish

    Serve your hot, creamy three cheese pasta in individual bowls. Garnish with extra herbs if you like, and pair with a green salad or garlic bread for a complete meal. This dish is not just delicious, it’s your go-to baked pasta with cheese for any night of the week.
