Macaroni Au Gratin

8oz Penne
15 oz. ricotta cheese
1/2 tsp. onion powder
1 T. of mayo
2 tsp. of Worcestershire sauce/soy sauce
1 tsp. of mustard
1.5 tsp. of white pepper (black pepper is fine)
1 large egg
1/2 chicken bouillon cube
1/4 C. milk
salt to taste
6 oz. mozzarella cheese
3 oz. Parmesan cheese/cheddar cheese
1 small clove of garlic

Add the penne to 3 1/2 to 4 C. of salted boiling water. Cook the penne until al dente ( do not cook the pasta completely, the oven will cook it through). While the pasta is cooking preheat your oven to 400 degrees F. In a separate bowl or baking dish (I’m using a 1.5 quart baking dish) beat the egg then add in the milk, mustard, a pinch of salt, pepper, mashed bouillon cube, mashed and chopped garlic, onion powder, mozzarella and ricotta cheese. Mix, mix and mix. Set aside. Once the pasta is ready. Drain then toss into your mixing bowl/baking dish of mixed ingredients. Make sure each penne is coated. This is when you want to add to baking dish, if you haven’t already. Then sprinkle the parmesan cheese on top. Bake until the cheese is melted and slightly brown. Remove from oven immediately. Let rest a few minutes.
