Place remaining sauce and chiles in a zip-top plastic bag and freeze for future use. Melt butter in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add bell pepper and bacon; saut? 4 minutes. Add onions; saut? 1 minute. Stir in the adobo sauce, minced chile, flour, chili powder, salt and cumin; cook 1 minute. Gradually add milk; cook until thick and bubbly (about 4 minutes), stirring constantly with a whisk. Remove from heat. Gradually add 1 1/2 cups cheese and cilantro, stirring until cheese melts. Add pasta to pan; toss well. Spoon the pasta mixture into a 11x7-inch baking dish coated with cooking spray. Sprinkle 1/2 cup cheese over pasta mixture. Bake at 400 degrees for 15 mins or until browned. Yield: 6 servings Cooks note: I could not find the prepared can of whole chiles with the sauce so I just used the can of diced green chiles I found in the Mexican food isle and threw in what looked to be the right amount. Enjoy!
