Any tube pasta can be used to make this pasta bake e.g. penne, rigatoni, maccheroni, elicoidali etc
Instead of caciocavallo or mozzarella you can also use scamorza or provola
instead of grated parmesan, pecorino or grana are delicious too!
This dish can be prepared in advance up to the point of baking it. Keep it in the fridge and bake just before serving.
