Ingredients (raw weights)

320 g protein pasta, dry
6 g salt, dry
3.1 g garlic powder, dry
2.4 g onion powder, dry
2.3 g paprika, dry
428 g evaporated milk, fat free, canned
100 g cheddar/colby cheese, low fat shredded, as sold
50 g cheddar/colby cheese, low fat shredded, as sold
20 g dry yeast

Steps

Make sure to stir the pot from start to finish the entire time, this will ensure none of the pasta gets stuck at the bottom.
Towards the end once all the cheese mixes have been added in if at any point the consistency is too thick you can always add a bit more evaporated milk to make it creamier.
When reheating add a drop of milk & stir it together. This will help the pasta warm up & become creamy again without splitting.
