The easiest single serve ever ! Made with REAL dairy goodness, not that pretend cheese in the box on the shelf. Don't freak about the 6 slices of cheese,... How much do you think is in that greasy pizza that you almost ordered ?? You can also jazz this up with a small handful of leftover chicken, a little sauteed onion & peppers or mushrooms, even a small amount of broccoli or grated zucchini to keep your mother happy.
Ingredients:
1 cup dry elbow macaroni
1/2 cup whole milk
6 slices cheddar cheese (torn into pieces)
Directions:
1. Place 4 cups water in a pot & bring to boil.
2. When boiling, add a half teaspoon salt to the water, add pasta & cook for 7 minutes.
3. While pasta cooks, place cold milk & cheese in a pan & put over medium low heat so that the cheese melts slowly but DO NOT BOIL.
4. When pasta is done, drain & add to sauce & stir together over medium heat for a minute or so or until the thickness is to your liking.
5. NOTES:.
6. Any additions should be cooked or warmed in the pan before adding milk & cheese.
7. The better way to make Mac & Cheese is to make a roux with a teaspoon each of flour & butter but I have no problem with the cheese lumping if I use the soft processed sandwich cheese that everyone keeps in the fridge.
