BAKED MACARONI WITH RICOTTA, EGGS AND YOGURT

 
This is one of the most exploited foods in my kitchen :) Or it used to be. All my family loves it and it's good even when cold (if there's any left).
 
Ingredients:

  • 500 g macaroni or other pasta (I buy small macaroni)
  • 3 eggs
  • 250 ml yogurt (buttermilk or sour milk or even milk) (8,5 oz)
  • 400 g ricotta (or 250 g crumbled white cheese)
  • salt
  • oil 
  • cheese for topping (optional)
Preparation:
  1. Cook pasta in salted water. When done, drain and place in an oiled baking tray. 
  2. Add crumbled ricotta or white cheese all over and mix slightly. If ricotta is unsalty, add salt before adding it in the pasta. 
  3. Mix eggs with yogurt and add salt and pour on top. 
  4. Bake at 220 C (430 F) degrees until lightly browned. I like them more crunchy so I bake a little longer and even at  max degrees.
  5. Before the end of baking, you can add some cheese on top and return the tray in the oven for 2-3 minutes just to melt the cheese.
Enjoy!
