Steps:

• Cook pasta just until al dente according to package directions - don't overcook! Strain and rinse with cold water.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a 9x13 baking dish. Set aside.
• Melt 4 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium heat then whisk in flour. Cook, while stirring for 2 minutes. Turn heat to low then gradually whisk in milk. Whisk cornstarch into evaporated milk and gradually add to skillet followed by Dijon mustard and all remaining spices/seasonings.
• Bring to a boil, whisking constantly then reduce heat to medium and simmer, whisking occasionally until thickened (but not overly thick). Remove from heat and whisk in sharp cheese until melted. Add pasta and toss until evenly coated (it will seem like a lot of extra sauce which is a good thing).
• Pour half of the macaroni and cheese into prepared baking dish. Layer macaroni evenly with provolone cheese followed by an even layer of sour cream. Pour remaining macaroni and cheese over sour cream and spread into an even layer. Sprinkle with 1 cup Parmesan cheese (or more to taste).
• Panko topping (optional): Melt butter in olive oil over medium heat in a medium skillet. Add panko and stir to coat. Continue cooking until crumbs become golden brown. Evenly sprinkle over macaroni and cheese.
• Bake 25-30 minutes or until bubbly and inside provolone is melted. If not topping with panko, broil until Parmesan is golden. Cool 10 minutes to set before serving.

MACARONI SURPRISE

Steps:

• Prepare Sauce: Brown (85% lean) ground beef in a deep skillet and then crumble. This does not usually have enough fat to bother draining.
• Add to the skillet: the can of drained diced tomatoes, can or jar of spaghetti sauce, Italian seasoning, and salt & pepper to taste. (I use "Hunt's Four Cheese" Spaghetti sauce).
• Cover and simmer the sauce on medium-low heat for approximately 25 minutes.
• While the sauce is simmering, prepare the box of macaroni and cheese according to the directions on the box. (Hint: It is best to use only just enough milk so that the powdered cheese will dissolve.).
• Pour the spaghetti sauce into a 13 X 9 glass baking dish.
• Carefully add the macaroni and cheese as a layer on top of the sauce. Do not stir.
• In even intervals about 2-3 inches apart, stick a spoon straight down into the dish so that some of the sauce will mix with the macaroni and cheese. Do this going across the pan lengthwise in two rows. Do not stir the entire dish.
• Sprinkle the grated cheddar cheese evenly over the top.
• Sprinkle Italian bread crumbs over the cheese in a very thin layer.
• Sprinkle a pinch of Italian seasoning or Oregano over the bread crumbs.
• Bake for 15 minutes or until cheese is melted in a 350 degree oven.
• Let stand for 5 minutes and then cut and serve like lasagna squares.

SPAM MACARONI AND CHEESE

Steps:

• Bring 4 quarts of water to a boil over high heat in a large, heavy pot or Dutch oven.
• Meanwhile, heat a large nonstick skillet or wok over medium-high, then add Spam and fry for about 10 minutes, stirring often, until the meat is evenly browned and crispy. (Feel free to taste along the way until the Spam reaches your desired crispness.) Remove from heat until ready to use.
• Once water has come to a rolling boil, add a fistful of salt, then stir in the macaroni. Cook according to package instructions, stirring several times, until al dente, about 7 to 9 minutes. Drain the noodles in a large colander, then rinse the noodles and the pot with lukewarm water.
• Return pot to stovetop over medium heat and add 2 cups milk. While the milk is warming, combine remaining 1 cup milk and the flour in a medium bowl and whisk together until there are no lumps. Once the milk starts to steam, whisk in the milk-and-flour mixture, and continue to whisk gently until a béchamel forms as thick as plain yogurt, about 12 minutes.
• Once the sauce is thickened, reduce heat to low and slowly whisk in 4 cups shredded cheese until fully melted. Add white and black pepper, then season to taste with salt.
• Off heat, add Spam and cooked macaroni, and fold a dozen or so times until thoroughly mixed.
• Serve immediately, passing the extra cheese at the table, or transfer the macaroni to a casserole, sprinkle with the remaining cheese, and bake under low broil until toasted on top, about 5 to 10 minutes.
