This recipe isn't for anyone who loves the boxed mac and cheese stuff. This has character and is meant for an adult taste. Having said that, I know that asiago isn't for everyone and if it's not your cup of tea I would suggest that all cheddar or a mix of cheeses that you like be used. It will be delicious either way so just go with what you like best.

How To Make roasted vegetable mac 'n' cheese

1
Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Slice the tomatoes 1/4 inch thick. Toss the tomatoes and broccoli with the oil and roast separately on parchment-lined baking pans for 30 minutes.

2
Whisk the butter and flour in a medium-size pot over medium-high heat until foamy. Add the milk. Whisk until thickened and bubbling, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat.
3
Stir in the cheeses, mustard, salt, pepper, and thyme. Stir in the pasta and broccoli and transfer to a 9- by 13-inch baking dish. Top with the tomatoes and bake about 30 minutes.
