- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided
- 1 (12-ounce) can evaporated milk

Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 375°.
Cook pasta according to package directions; drain well.
Cut bacon with kitchen shears into bite-size pieces into a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook bacon until beginning to brown, but not crisp. Add shallot and garlic; cook 2 minutes. Add mushrooms and peas. Cook until mushrooms become tender. Remove from heat and set aside.
Combine Cheddar cheese, Swiss cheese, and 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese in a large bowl. Stir in warm pasta and bacon mixture. In a medium bowl or measuring cup, combine milk, egg, parsley, salt and pepper. Pour milk mixture over pasta mixture and stir until well-combined.
Pour pasta mixture into a 13- x 9-inch baking dish coated with cooking spray. Combine potato chips and remaining 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese in a medium bowl. Sprinkle mixture over pasta.
Bake at 375° for 18 minutes or until mixture is bubbly. Be careful that Parmesan cheese in crust doesn't brown excessively. Tent with foil if cheese begins to get too brown.
