Preheat oven to 350. Grease 9x13 pan.
Bring large pot of salted water to boil and add pasta. Cook for 1 minute less than package directions for al dente. Drain and drizzle with a little olive oil to prevent sticking.

Stir in spices and 1 1/2 c. of cheese until smooth.
In large mixing bowl, combine drained pasta with cheese sauce. Stir until combined. Pour half of the pasta mixture into prepared baking pan. Top with 1 1/2 c of the grated cheeses, then top that with remaining pasta mixture.
Sprinkle with last 1 1/2 c. of cheese and bake for 15 minutes until bubbly and lightly golden brown.
