Sun Dried Tomato and Goat Cheese Pasta image

I got this recipe from a friend who, in turn, got it from a cookbook of macaroni and cheese variations. Before I ate this, I swore I did not like goat cheese. However, after I ate this, I changed my mind. To top it all off, this recipe is SUPER easy, SUPER quick, and is perfect for a light main dish!
