This Pink Sauce Mac & Cheese is the best of both worlds—part classic red sauce, part cheesy mac & cheese. It starts with butter, garlic, tomato paste, and tomato sauce to build a rich, savory base. Heavy cream and a trio of cheddar, mozzarella, and Parmesan take it over the top, creating a creamy, tangy, and deeply satisfying pasta. Fresh basil adds brightness, while a splash of reserved pasta water ties it all together for the ultimate comfort bowl.
