How to make it
1
Bring a medium pot of salted water (3/4 full) to a boil. Rinse and dry all produce. Slice the scallions, keeping the white bases and green tops separate. Halve the tomatoes; season with salt and pepper. Grate the gouda on the large side of a box grater. In a separate bowl, combine the barbecue sauce and 2 tablespoons water.
2
Heat the butter in a nonstick pan over medium-high until melted. Add the breadcrumbs; season. Cook stirring frequently 2-3 minutes until toasted. Transfer to a bowl. Wipe out the pan.
3
Add the pasta to the boiling water. Cook stirring occasionally 7-9 minutes until al dente. Drain, reserving 1/4 cup pasta water (1/2 cup for 4 servings). Transfer to a bowl.
4
Heat a drizzle of olive oil in the same pan over medium-high. Add the pulled pork. Cook stirring occasionally 1-2 minutes until lightly browned. Add the barbecue sauce mixture (it may spatter); season. Cook stirring occasionally 2-3 minutes until the pork is heated through and the liquid is slightly thickened. Remove from heat.
5
In the reserved pot, combine the bechamel, cream (shake the packet), and reserved pasta water; season. Cook over medium, whisking frequently, 1-2 minutes until combined. Whisking constantly, add the grated gouda and shredded cheeses in batches; season. Cook whisking 1-2 minutes until melted. Add the cooked pasta. Cook stirring frequently 1-2 minutes until coated and the sauce thickens. Taste and season.
6
Add the torn lettuce and seasoned tomatoes to the bowl of dressing; season and toss. Serve the mac and cheese topped with the BBQ pulled pork, toasted breadcrumbs, and green scallion tops. Serve the salad on the side. Top the salad with chopped peppers.
