Homemade Mac And Cheese

So as many of you know, I have been taking my family completely back to "scratch" with our meals. It's a slow process and is not happening over-night. One of our last favorite meals was to find a easy Mac N Cheese recipe to teach the girls. Found one and it was a hit! So here are some pics as well as the recipe:

Here are the ingredients...

Fred is having one of her first lessons in cooking...

Bring milk to a slow boil...











It was so good!!!

I found this recipe at Hillbilly Housewife:

Mac ‘n Cheese
§                       1 quart prepared (reconstituted) nonfat dry milk
§                       2 cups uncooked macaroni
§                       2 Tbsp. butter or margarine
§                       2 cups cheese, shredded or finely chopped
§                       1/2 tsp. salt
Pour milk into large pot and put over medium heat, bringing just to a ‘bubble’ (do not boil hard).
Turn burner heat down to low and stir in the uncooked macaroni.
Simmer over low heat for 5 minutes.
Stir in butter or margarine, cheese, and salt; stir gently so butter and cheese melts.
Pour mac and cheese mixture into a baking dish.
Bake at 350°F for about 30 minutes or until browned on top.
You can add buttered bread crumbs to the top for a crunchy topping if you wish.
This Mac ‘n Cheese dish is so easy to make, you may never again buy one of those boxed mixes!


ENJOY!
