Provided by Food Network

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup unbleached white flour
1 quart milk, heated
1 1/2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
Pinch of nutmeg, preferably freshly grated
Salt and pepper to taste
1/4 cup vegetable oil
4 cups chopped onions
3 garlic cloves, minced or pressed
1/2 cup fresh basil, chopped (2 teaspoons dried)
1 large head of cauliflower, cut in florets
6 ripe tomatoes, chopped or 3 cups canned tomatoes, drained and chopped
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 pound medium pasta shells
1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese (2 1/2 ounces)
1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella or mild provolone cheese (6 ounces)
Seasoned bread crumbs

Steps:

  • To prepare the Bechamel sauce, melt the butter in a heavy saucepan on medium heat. Sprinkle in the flour, whisking or stirring constantly, until a smooth pasteis formed. Add the heated milk slowly, a cup at a time, continuing to whisk until the sauce begins to thicken. Add the mustard, nutmeg, salt, and pepper and let the sauce thicken further on low heat. Remove from heat and cover.
  • Saute the onions, garlic, and basil in oil. When the onions are translucent, add the cauliflower and saute for 5 minutes or more. Add the tomatoes and simmer until the cauliflower is tender.
  • Cook the pasta al dente and then drain.
  • In a large bowl, combine the cooked pasta, the Sauteed vegetables, and the lemon juice. Mix in the Bechamel sauce. Put half of the pasta mixture in an oiled baking dish. Sprinkle on half of each of the cheeses. Add the rest of the pasta mixture and then the rest of the cheese. Top with seasoned bread crumbs and bake covered at 375 degrees for about 30 minutes and then uncovered for about 15 minutes or until bubbling and golden on top
