Mac and Cheese

 So I cooked two real meals this week! 2! And worked, and we still have clean clothes! It's a miracle  compared to recent weeks!

 So, I figured I should share-

Homemade Macaroni and Cheese (I've adapted it some over the years)

Boil/Cook 12oz Pasta (medium elbow, small shell, spiral or bowtie work best) in an oven safe pot if possible.  I use my Le Crueset Oval Dutch Oven.
Preheat Oven to 350.
Drain, butter insides of dutch oven/pan, return pasta to pan.
Add 12oz mixed cheddars shredded cheese (I use one bag 3 Cheddar Blend plus 1/2 a bag of Mild Cheddar, you can also add Monterray Jack or Colby) and 2 TB light Mayonnaise.
Stir and drizzle with 2 TB Milk.

 

Melt 1 stick unsalted butter in microwave.  Crush 1 sleeve Ritz Crackers into butter and mix with fork til all crackers are moistened.

Spread over pasta.

Bake for 25-30 minutes or until crackers are golden.

 

ENJOY!
