This Pasta ai Quattro Formaggi is one easy recipe that  delights all cheese lovers. The best part of this recipe is that you can use whatever four cheeses you like, but I would suggest to always keep the Parmesan Cheese as one of them. Four cheese whole wheat pasta is the perfect dish for a quick dinner or lunch, served along a good white wine.

I usually use penne for this dish and bake it but I really love the spaghetti idea! Looks so good. I need to make this soon.
