Noodles & Company, the national fast-casual chain known for spreading Uncommon Goodness with its globally inspired noodle bowls, best-in-class service, and values-centric culture, announced that it’s now serving guests even more ooey-gooey goodness by enhancing its World-Famous Mac menu with 50 percent more cheese sauce in every bowl.

To add even more cheesy, craveable items to its menu, Noodles is also introducing Chicken Prosciutto Tortelloni with Smoked Gouda. Noodles Rewards members have exclusive access to try the new Chicken Prosciutto Tortelloni with Smoked Gouda dish beginning January 31, 2024, before it’s available nationwide to all guests on Wednesday, February 14, 2024, for a limited time.

You Can Never Have Too Much of a Good Thing

Noodles & Company sets the standard for mac & cheese with its award-winning dish. With a mac menu that includes Wisconsin Mac & Cheese, Buffalo Chicken Mac, and BBQ Chicken Mac, every bowl starts with premium elbow noodles that are deliciously covered in now 50% more cheese sauce and topped with premium aged cheddars. Guests can grab a craveable bowl starting at just over $6.

“We offer the most craveable mac & cheese out there, which is why it is no surprise we sell more than 12 million bowls of our award-winning Mac & Cheese each year,” says Stacey Pool, chief marketing officer at Noodles & Company. “But we believe you can never have too much of a good thing, which is why we’re adding more of our irresistible cheese sauce in every bowl of Mac & Cheese.”

The Perfect Bite in Every Bite

Following a positive response to its menu test last spring, Noodles is adding the delectable Chicken Prosciutto Tortelloni with Smoked Gouda to its menu for a limited time. This new stuffed pasta dish is made with premium, fresh ingredients including a black pepper tortelloni stuffed with chicken, prosciutto, toasted mushrooms, and spinach, topped with a smoked gouda cheese sauce, parmesan cheese, and parsley. Chicken Prosciutto Tortelloni with Smoked Gouda is available at a value price point of $10 for a small bowl and $12 for a regular, complementing Noodles’ other stuffed pasta options, including 3-Cheese Tortelloni Rosa, 3-Cheese Tortelloni Pesto, and Roasted Garlic Cream Tortelloni.

“Response from our initial test showed that guests were craving a meat-filled pasta option, so we’re excited to offer more variety with this new menu item,” says Pool. “We’re dedicated to infusing Uncommon Goodness into our menu and our new Chicken Prosciutto Tortelloni with Smoked Gouda is a testament to that with its premium ingredients and indulgent sauce, all at a great price.”
