Ingredients:

Serving

1 lb uncooked cellentani ( corkscrew) pasta
2 tbsp butter
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
3 cups fat-free milk
1 (12-oz.) can fat-free evaporated milk
1 1/2 cups 2% reduced-fat sharp cheddar cheese
3 oz fat-free cream cheese, softened
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp ground red pepper, divided
1 (8-oz.) package chopped smoked ham
1 (4-oz.) jar diced pimiento, drained
vegetable cooking spray
1 1/4 cups cornflakes cereal, crushed
1 tbsp butter, melted

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350°. Prepare cellentani pasta according to package directions.
Meanwhile, melt 2 Tbsp. butter in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Gradually whisk in flour; cook, whisking constantly, 1 minute. Gradually whisk in milk and evaporated milk until smooth; cook, whisking constantly, 8 to 10 minutes or until slightly thickened. Whisk in cheese, salt, and 1/8 tsp. ground red pepper until smooth. Remove from heat, and stir in ham, pimiento, and pasta.
Pour pasta mixture into a 13- x 9-inch baking dish coated with cooking spray. Stir together crushed cereal, 1 Tbsp. melted butter, and remaining 1/8 tsp. ground red pepper; sprinkle over pasta mixture.
Bake at 350° for 30 minutes or until golden and bubbly. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.
