• Cook macaroni in boiling salted water according to the package directions for al dente. Drain and return to the pot. Stir in the tablespoon of butter until melted, then add half the cheese and stir until it's fully combined and starting to melt. Stir in the milk mixture until the pasta is evenly coated. Pour the pasta into the buttered dish, spread it evenly and sprinkle the rest of the cheese on top.
• Bake until the top is bubbling and golden brown, 35 to 40 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and let rest for at least 10 minutes to help it firm up. The dish can be made up to a day in advance, tightly covered with foil or plastic wrap, and refrigerated, or cut into serving sizes, wrapped tightly and frozen. Reheat covered with foil in a 350-degree oven or in a covered skillet on the stove.

Steps:

• Peel the eggplants, and slice them lengthwise 1/4-inch-thick. Sprinkle with salt, and place in a colander to drain for 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, lightly butter a 10-inch springform pan with 1 tablespoon butter. Coat evenly with the breadcrumbs; set aside.
• Using paper towels, dry the eggplant slices. Heat 1/2-inch oil (half vegetable, half olive) in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches, add eggplant, and cook until lightly golden on both sides. Drain on a paper towel-lined baking sheet. Line the bottom and sides of the prepared pan with eggplant slices, slightly overlapping them and letting them overhang the sides of the pan; set aside.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add salt and pasta, and cook for 4 minutes. Drain, and transfer to a large bowl.
• Stir the tomato sauce, half of the Parmesan and Pecorino, and the oregano into the pasta. Spoon half of the pasta into the lined pan. Top with caciocavalo cheese, remaining 3 tablespoons each Parmesan and Pecorino, and basil, then the remaining pasta. Fold the overhanging slices of eggplant over the pasta, and cover completely with remaining eggplant slices.
• Dot with the remaining 2 tablespoons butter. Bake until the top is golden brown, about 30 minutes.
• Remove from oven, place a platter on top, and invert. Let stand for 10 minutes before unmolding. Remove the sides and bottom of the pan. Serve with remaining cup of sauce on the side.

Steps:

• Place egg whites into a metal mixing bowl and refrigerate overnight. The next day, bring egg whites to room temperature.
• Preheat oven to 280 degrees F (138 degrees C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Whisk confectioners' sugar and almond flour in a bowl. Beat the egg whites with salt in metal bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until foamy, about 1 minute; increase speed to high and gradually beat in superfine sugar, about 1 tablespoon at a time, until the egg whites are glossy and hold stiff peaks, 3 to 5 more minutes.
• Gently fold almond flour mixture into whipped egg whites until thoroughly incorporated; spoon meringue into a pastry big fitted with a 3/8-inch tip.
• Pipe 1-inch disks of meringue onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving 2 inches of space between cookies. The batter will spread. Lift the baking sheets a few inches above the work surface and hit them lightly on the work surface several times to remove any air bubbles from the cookies. Let the cookies stand at room temperature until the shiny surfaces become dull and a thin skin forms, about 15 minutes.
• Place the baking sheets in the preheated oven and bake with the oven door open slightly until the macarons' surfaces are completely dry, about 15 minutes. Let cookies cool completely on a baking sheet before peeling parchment paper from the cookies.
• Spread half the cookies with any desired filling, top with remaining cookies to make sandwiches, and refrigerate at least 2 hours to overnight to let the cookies soften.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Spread the baguette chunks over a baking sheet, drizzle with the melted butter and season. Bake for 6 mins until crisp, then set aside.
• Boil the pasta for 2 mins less than stated on the pack, then drain. Meanwhile, melt the butter in a saucepan. Add the garlic and English mustard powder, cook for 1 min, then stir in the plain flour.
• Cook for 1 min more, then gradually whisk in the milk until you have a lump-free sauce. Simmer for 5 mins, whisking all the time until thickened. Take off the heat, then stir in the cheddar and half the parmesan.
• Stir the pasta and some seasoning into the cheesy sauce. Tip into a large ovenproof dish, or four individual dishes.
• Scatter over the bread and the remaining parmesan, then bake for 20 mins until crisp and golden. Can be frozen before baking - defrost thoroughly before cooking.

Steps:

• In a Dutch oven, cook beef over medium heat until no longer pink; drain. Add the tomatoes, water, soup mix, Italian seasoning and, if desired, pepper flakes. Bring to a boil. Stir in macaroni. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 8-9 minutes or until macaroni is tender., Remove from the heat; stir in Parmesan cheese. Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese. Cover and let stand for 2 minutes or until cheese is melted.
