CREAMY BAKED ASIAGO-GOUDA FETTUCCINE
Let your taste buds experience the very flavorful combination of Asiago and smoked Gouda cheeses, which team up to make this dish extra-special. The pasta sauce is a bit liquidity before baked, but it reduces down to a thicker sauce consistency. This fettuccine is rich, creamy and tastes wonderful. It is filling enough for a meatless dinner. It is quick enough for a weekday meal, but delicious to serve to company. Pair it with steamed veggies or a salad. Update: I have edited this recipe as a result of a couple of the reviewers' suggestions.

GIADA'S CREAMY BAKED FETTUCCINE WITH ASIAGO AND THYME
Saw this on Everyday Italian on the Food Network. Very rich and creamy! Also would be good with spinach added. **NOTE** If you're on a budget you can switch out the fresh cheese for the Italian Blend shredded cheese which has the Parmesan and Asiago in it and it still turns out great! Also can be made ahead of time and kept in the fridge overnight. Just top with the cheese right before baking.

Tips:
- Use high-quality cheese: The type of cheese you use will greatly affect the flavor of your dish. Choose high-quality cheeses that have a rich, flavorful taste.
- Shred your own cheese: Pre-shredded cheese often contains additives that can affect the taste and texture of your dish. Shredding your own cheese ensures that you get the freshest, best-tasting cheese.
- Cook the pasta al dente: Al dente pasta is cooked until it is slightly firm to the bite. This prevents the pasta from becoming mushy when it is baked in the oven.
- Don't crowd the pan: When baking the pasta, make sure to spread it out evenly in the pan. Crowding the pan will prevent the pasta from cooking evenly.
- Use a hot oven: A hot oven will help to create a crispy, golden-brown crust on the pasta.
- Let the pasta rest before serving: Letting the pasta rest for a few minutes before serving will allow the flavors to meld together.

Creamy baked Asiago Gouda fettuccine is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion.
