30 Min Elevated Mac and Cheese with Feta, Ricotta & Marinated Artichokes!

1. Preheat oven to 400F. In an oven-safe baking dish: place olive oil, feta, artichokes, sea salt, pepper, sumac, and dried basil.
2. Drizzle more olive oil and dried basil on top and bake for ~30-35 mins.
3. While the feta bakes, cook pasta of your choice. Drain & save ~1/4 cup of pasta water- which we’ll add to the sauce later to make it even creamier. Pasta water has starch and is the best emulsifier!💯 
4. Remove from the oven, mash & mix into a sauce. Add fresh ricotta at this point to and then the pasta. Add a pinch of pasta water to thicken and emulsify the sauce. Top with fresh basil and red pepper flakes! Enjoy every bite!
5. PRO tip: if reheating leftovers- add crumbled feta on top, a drizzle of olive oil- and a tiny splash of oat or classic cream. Enjoy every bite!
