Heat oven to 350º. Coat a 2-quart broiled-safe oval baking dish with cooking spray. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil.

Once water boils, app penne. Cook 6 minutes, then drain. In a large bowl, toss together the cheddar, Gruyere and Asagio. Set aside.

Meanwhile, melt butter in medium-size saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in flour until smooth and slightly bubbly. In a thin stream, whisk in milk. Stir in onion powder, salt and cayenne. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat and simmer 3 minutes. Remove from heat, whisk in 2 1/2 cups of the cheese mixture.
