Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Kosher salt
6 ounces cavatappi or fusilli
3 hot turkey sausage links (about 8 ounces), casings removed
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1 cup whole milk
4 ounces processed cheese (such as Velveeta), cubed
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1/3 cup sour cream
1 10-ounce can diced tomatoes with chiles, drained
1 cup shredded Mexican cheese blend (about 4 ounces)

Steps:

  • Preheat the broiler. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook as the label directs. Drain, then transfer to an 8-inch square flameproof baking dish.
  • Meanwhile, cook the sausage in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, breaking up the meat, until browned and crisp, about 10 minutes. Add the flour, chili powder, cumin and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring, until combined, about 1 minute. Slowly whisk in the milk, scraping up any browned bits. Add the processed cheese and whisk until melted and smooth, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and whisk in the eggs. Return the saucepan to medium-low heat and cook, whisking, until thickened, 1 to 2 minutes. Whisk in the sour cream and tomatoes.
  • Pour the cheese sauce over the pasta and stir to combine. Sprinkle with the shredded cheese and broil until melted and bubbling, 2 to 3 minutes.
