5-Cheese Macaroni

Ingredients:

- 1 package (16 oz) elbow macaroni

- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup shredded Swiss cheese
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 cup shredded provolone cheese

- 1/2 cup ricotta cheese
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup heavy cream

- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (or equivalent dried parsley)
- 1/2 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt

Directions:

Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.

Cook macaroni according to package directions, until tender (or 6-8 minutes), then drain.

In a large bowl, mix together the mozzarella, Swiss, Parmesan, and provolone cheeses. Remove about 1/2 cup for topping and set aside.

In a separate bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, sour cream, and heavy cream. Add the parsley, Italian seasoning, and garlic salt.

Add the ricotta cheese mixture and drained macaroni to the shredded cheeses. Toss lightly; do not mix too thoroughly. Pour into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the reserved cheese over the top.

Broil for about 5 minutes to brown the top.
