Corn Cheesy Tangy Pasta Recipe/Mac Cheesy Corn Pasta

Corn Cheesy Tangy Pasta

I love Macaroni (narrow tubes) other than any pasta shapes..You wanna taste the real yum of white sauce(Béchamel sauce) then mix it with mac.Now to the recipe,I tried this in a nearby restaurant and it was delicious.But that was somewhat bland ,so I modified it to my taste buds and that turned out a super hit here.This is made with basic white sauce added with some corn,tomato sauce and cheese.The final product is "Gooey Tangy Mac".Lovely!!Do try this and Enjoy!!

Add only cheese or only sauce for variations,

• With sauce alone,you get a tangy pasta in white sauce.

• Without sauce,it taste gooey and you can serve that too.
