Cook 12 oz pasta in a pot of salted, boiling water for about 12 minutes or until tender (do not overcook; it will cook more in the oven).

5. Stir in 1 cup cheddar cheese until melted and combined.
6. Fold pasta into sauce and stir until combined; add salt to taste.
Layer Macaroni & Cheese:
1. Pour 1/2 of the pasta mixture into a 2L glass or ceramic casserole.
2. Sprinkle 1/4 cup cheddar and 1/4 cup mozzarella on the bottom layer.
3. Pour remaining pasta mixture and spread as a top layer.
