1/4 cup finely grated parmesan |
3 tablespoons thinly sliced chives, for garnish |
Directions:
1. Bring a large saucepan of salted water to a boil over medium heat. Add the macaroni and cook to al dente.
2. Drain in a colander. (I have to rinse the pasta... they say not to, but, cooking for my Dad growing up, that was a BIG no no...he hates that starchy taste, gotta say, I do too! lol YUCH!)
3. Whisk together the smoked paprika, garlic powder, hickory smoked salt, mustard powder, nutmeg, and marjoram.
4. Set aside.
5. Return the saucepan to the stovetop and add evaporated milk to warm.

8. Transfer the macaroni to a serving bowl and sprinkle with chives before serving
