Ingredients | Barilla Arrabbiata Sauce

1 (16 ounce) box Barilla® Elbows

1 cup reduced sodium chicken or vegetable broth

1 cup peeled and shredded sweet potato

1 cup Barilla® Tomato & Basil Sauce

¼ teaspoon salt

1 ½ cups shredded fontina cheese

¼ cup low-fat milk, plus more as needed

2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil

Directions

Bring 4 to 6 quarts of water to a rolling boil, add salt to taste and the Elbows; stir gently.

Cook pasta according to package directions; remove from heat and drain well.

Meanwhile, in a small pot bring the broth to a boil and add the sweet potato; cook 3 to 4 minutes or until soft, then remove from heat.

In a blender combine the sweet potato, broth, Tomato & Basil Sauce and salt; cover and blend until smooth.

In a very large skillet bring the blended sauce mixture to a low simmer. Remove from heat; slowly stir in cheese until melted (mixture may appear curdled). Stir pasta into the sauce in skillet. Let stand 5 minutes. Stir in enough milk to make a creamy consistency.

Serve topped with fresh basil.

Rather than shredding your cheese, grab your family's favorite pre-shredded cheese blend.
