01of 17Cheesy Chicken Pasta BakeView RecipePhotographer: Jen Causey, Food Stylist: Torie Cox, Prop Stylist: Claire SpollenThis chicken pasta bake is cheesy with a smoky kick, thanks to the combination of chipotle peppers and smoked Gouda cheese. If you want to mellow the smoky flavor, regular Gouda works just as well. Spray the foil lightly with cooking spray or brush it with a little oil to prevent the cheesy topping from sticking. Serve with a simple side salad or garlic-roasted broccoli.
