Ingredients

Instructions

  • Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil over high heat, add the macaroni and cook as directed on the package, adding the vegetables with 6 minutes left of cooking.
  • While the macaroni and veggies boil, melt the butter in a medium-sized pot over medium heat. Once melted, stir in the flour until a thick paste forms (roux).
  • Very slowly add the half & half to the roux, and whisk until thoroughly combined. Allow to gently simmer until slightly thickened, stirring occasionally, then add the fontina cheese and stir until melted and smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Once the noodles and vegetables are done, drain and return to the pot. Pour the fontina cheese sauce over the noodles and vegetables and stir to combine. Stir in the warmed pork, then serve immediately.
