Ham 'n' Cheese Pasta image

"My mother would prepare this yummy comfort food whenever there was leftover ham," recalls Karen Kopp from Indianapolis, Indiana. "Horseradish gives it a nice tangy taste. I quickened the preparation by using process cheese instead of making a cheese sauce from scratch. Now my kids love it, too. This recipe can easily be doubled," she adds.

I followed the recipe exactly and my pasta turned out too dry. I think I should have added more milk or cream.
