Today I made Mac 'n Cheese for our Two Week Get to Payday Menu
I boiled 3 cups of macaroni until dente. In another pot I added 3 tbsp. of butter to
a pot and whisked in 2 heaping tbsp. of flour when the butter had melted. Poured in
2 cups of milk, some salt and pepper and simmered until sauce thickened. I added
8 oz. of grated Giant Eagle mild or sharp cheddar cheese; let the cheese melt and added
1 can of creamed corn and stirred for a couple more minutes. Spread the cooked macaroni
into a 9 x 12 greased pan and scraped the cheese sauce over the macaroni and mixed well.
Took the pot back to the stove and added 2 tbsp. of butter and quite a bit of Italian bread crumbs
(about 4 tbsp.). I sprinkled this over the top of the macaroni and pushed the crumbs into the top
a little. Baked on 350 degrees for 40 minutes. Was delicious.
