30 minute Creamy Tomato Basil Pasta Bake

INGREDIENTS

• 1 pound fettuccine 

• 1 tablespoon butter

• 1 cup chunky basil pesto 

• 8 oz pasta sauce

• 1/3 cup enchilada sauce

• 1/2 cup oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes, oil drained

• 8 ounces sheep's milk feta cheese, crumbled 

• 6 ounces fontina cheese, finely diced or shredded

• 2 ounces cream cheese, softened

• 1/2 cup heavy cream

• salt + pepper

• 6 ounces (or more) fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced fresh basil, for serving

• cherry tomatoes, halved, for serving

INSTRUCTIONS

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the pasta to al dente. Drain the pasta and add it right back to the hot pot. To the pot add the butter, chunky basil pesto , pasta sauce , enchilada sauce, sun-dried tomatoes, sheep's milk feta cheese, fontina cheese, cream cheese and heavy cream. Season with pepper and a tiny pinch of salt. Using a large wooden spoon toss everything together until a creamy sauce has formed, about 3-5 minutes. If pot is not oven safe, transfer the pasta to a 9x13 inch baking dish. Place the mozzarella slices (or shredded mozz) on top of the pasta.

• Bake for 10 to 15 minutes, then turn the broiler on and broil for 1 to 2 minutes or until cheese is golden and bubbly.

• Remove from the oven and top with fresh basil ribbons. Allow to sit five minutes and then serve with fresh tom-tom tomatoes.
