Welcome to another edition of Tempt My Tummy Tuesday’s blog carnival hosted by At The Well. Here is a quick and tasty pasta recipe. It is simple and will go great with many different vegetables dishes. Remember to share your own recipe with us by linking to this blog carnival.
Spaghetti with Four Cheeses
- 8 ounces uncooked spaghetti
- 1/4 cup butter, cubed
- 1 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp pepper
- 1 1/2 cup half-and-half cream
- 1 cup (4 ounces) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
- 4 ounces shredded fontina cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded provolone cheese
- 1/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
- 2 tbsp minced fresh parsley
- Cook spaghetti according to package directions.
- While spaghetti cooking, melt butter in a large saucepan. Stir in flour, salt, and pepper until smooth. Gradually stir in cream. Bring to a boil, cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Remove from the heat, stir in cheeses until melted.
- Drain spaghetti. Toss with cheese sauce and parsley.
Doesn’t this sound great? I love it because it is a kid-friendly meal, as well as something you can serve when company is over for dinner. For other variations, you can add broccoli or peas to the dish. Why not serve it with grilled chicken? The dish is so versatile. The options are endless.

This sounds incredible! It also sounds like something my 3 yo would gobble up and then ask for seconds. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much for hosting! I brought my Swedish Potato Salad today.
I love the sound of this recipe, and as you say, it is so versatile. I love how different kinds of cheeses taste great on their own, but when you combine them – wow! Thank you so much for hosting. I’ve brought my go to pancake recipe in honour of Shrove Tuesday.
Good morning April. The pancake recipe sounds good. BTW, love your profile pic.
This is a wonderful assortment of recipes you have at this blog hop … I’m your newest follower and I can hardly wait to see what yummy treats come up every week!
Hi Trish. Glad you are joining us. Everyone shares great recipes. I host TMTT here at The Well every 2nd Tuesday of the month. Every other Tuesday, I host Tempt My Tummy Tuesday from my own blog, Blessed With Grace blog at http://www.blessedwithgrace.net. Hope you will join us again.
Pasta and cheese- how can you go wrong? I love simple pasta dishes. This week I’m sharing a recipe for a Salmon Orzo salad. It’s easy and the leftovers are great cold for lunch.
Even though it’s not quite 8 AM, I could eat that spaghetti right now! It looks and sounds delicious. Pasta, cheese, cream – doesn’t get much better than that!
Yum! That would be great with some left-over diced ham thrown in as well!
Oh, fontina cheese. That’s a cheese I never use, but I TRUST YOU!
Maybe I need to step outside of my cheese comfort zone.
Julie, Fontina has a mild flavor or and melts very creamy. I love it for cheese sauces.
Where can I find Fontina….I only seem to find Fontinella…not the same thing, right?
Thanks!!

Thank you for hosting.
Kid friendly recipes are wonderful. I worry about them most during a meal. If they can’t eat what I cook, I wouldn’t feel so good.
