Macaroni and Cheese Like Hoggys
"Columbus Ohio has a restaurant that serves the best mac and cheese. They use therr types of pasta in it as well as a bunch of cheese. THIS IS NOT HEART HEALTHY....but it is gooooood! try not to over cook because it can loose some of the gooey goodness."

I haven't had Hoggy's mac&cheese in several years so can't compare this but even without the comparison I know that this is good stuff! I halved the recipe and used elbow and rotini pasta (half and half) with 8 oz medium cheddar and 4 oz sharp cheddar. I also used light sour cream, light cottage cheese & 3/4 tsp season salt. It wasn't clear to me if the pasta measurement was before or after cooking but I took it as before cooking, using 2 cups uncooked pasta for the half recipe, which seemed right to me. This made an excellent and fairly quick to assemble dinner. Thanks for sharing! [Made for Spring 2013 Pick A Chef]

They used elbows & mostaccioli rigati. Also, cottage cheese & "rocotta" (ricotta?) aren't the same or interchangeable in this recipe. White pepper is missing. Source: I managed a Hoggy's
