Ingredients

  • 1 pound Pasta (I Used Elbow Macaroni)
  • 2 Tablespoons Butter
  • 3 Tablespoons All-purpose Flour
  • 2 cups Milk (I Used Skim)
  • 2 cups Shredded Havarti Cheese
  • 1 cup Fresh Spinach, Chopped
  • 1 dash Salt And Pepper, to taste

Method

  • 1.
  • Cook pasta in very salty water until it is al dente.
  • Drain and set aside.
  • 2.
  • In a large saucepan, melt butter over medium heat.
  • 3.
  • When butter is melted, whisk in flour to form a roux.
  • Let cook for 1-2 minutes, until roux has darkened.
  • 4.
  • Add milk a little at a time to the roux, whisking well between each addition to beat out any lumps.
  • Whisk until all milk is incorporated.
  • 5.
  • Bring sauce to a simmer and cook, whisking occasionally, until it has thickened, about 8-10 minutes.
  • 6.
  • When sauce has thickened, remove it from the heat and stir in cheese, spinach, salt, and pepper.
  • Stir until cheese has melted.
  • 7.
  • Toss pasta in sauce and serve immediately.
  • Top with extra havarti cheese and fresh ground pepper if youd like a bit of garnish.
