I think I will be using my lunch break today to enter a few recipes. I never seem to have time at home! Over the entire weekend I only add two to my website! ARGH!!
This is my favorite, but my hubby and children prefer Kraft Mac and Cheese out of the box!
MOM’S MACARONI AND CHEESE
1-1/2 cups uncooked elbow macaroni
5 tablespoons butter or margarine, divided
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1-1/2 cups milk
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese
2 ounces process American cheese, cubed
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoons dry bread crumbs
Cook macaroni according to package directions; drain. Place in greased 1-1/2 qt. baking dish; set aside. In a saucepan, melt 4 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Stir in flour until smooth. Gradually add milk; bring to a boil. Cook and stir for 2 minutes; reduce heat. Stir in cheese, salt and pepper until cheese is melted. Pour over macaroni; mix well. Melt the remaining butter; add the breadcrumbs. Sprinkle over casserole. Bake, uncovered, at 375 degrees for 30 minutes.
Yield: 6 servings
Ok, I am DEFINITELY coming back for this one! Mac & cheese is the ultimate comfort food (besides meat loaf, imo)
