GRANDMA'S HOMEMADE MACARONI AND CHEESE

Steps:

  • Cook macaroni until soft.
  • Use a large roast-pan or bowl which you would cook casseroles in the oven, and put a thin layer of macaroni upon the bottom, and then spread cheese over that layer, and repeat this layering process until the cheese and macaroni are gone (makes about 3-4 layers each).
  • Mix salt, pepper, eggs and milk together.
  • Pour into layered macaroni & cheese, until filled at the top (or until it is gone).
  • Sprinkle w/ paprika on top.
  • Place in oven, Bake at 350 degrees for about 45 minutes (covered).
  • Enjoy!

2 cups macaroni (uncooked)
1 1/4 cups cheddar cheese (shredded)

Steps:

  • For the pan: Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook until al dente according to the package instructions.
  • Butter the bottom and sides of a 9-by-9-inch baking dish or aluminum pan. Add the cooked pasta.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • For the sauce: In a large pot over medium heat, add the butter and heat until melted. Add the flour and cook, stirring, until the mixture smells like popcorn, about 5 minutes. Slowly add the milk, stirring or whisking while adding. Taste and season the pot with salt and pepper. Add the cheese cubes and stir until melted.
  • Pour the sauce over the pasta and gently shake the baking dish to settle the sauce in the nooks and crannies. Top with the shredded Cheddar and bake until the corners are brown, 25 to 30 minutes.

1 tablespoon salted butter
8 ounces sharp Cheddar cheese, shredded
2 tablespoons salted butter

OLD SCHOOL MAC N' CHEESE

This is a completely unpretentious, down-home macaroni and cheese recipe just like my grandma and mom always made. A simple white sauce where you add cheese and a few other flavors with macaroni and a potato chip crust. This recipe makes a lot, I like to make two pans so I can take one to a pot luck and have the other one to keep in the fridge for later. It's an easy recipe to adjust down if you only want to make one pan. If you aren't cooking it right away, just keep the topping separate until you are ready to put it in the oven.

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook elbow macaroni in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until cooked through but firm to the bite, 8 minutes; drain.
  • Melt butter in a large pot over medium-low heat. Slowly add flour to butter, whisking constantly; cook until brown and the mixture no longer smells of flour, about 5 minutes. Pour 1 cup milk into the flour mixture, whisking continually until fully incorporated, about 45 seconds; repeat twice. Add remaining 3 cups milk to the mixture, whisking to incorporate. Stir Worcestershire sauce, mustard powder, onion powder, and cayenne pepper into the mixture; season with salt and black pepper.
  • Reduce heat to low. Cook sauce, whisking frequently, until it begins to thicken, about 10 minutes. Add about half the package of shredded Cheddar cheese; stir continually until the cheese melts completely. Repeat with remaining half package of Cheddar cheese and the American cheese, about 4 ounces at a time. Once cheese is entirely incorporated, remove sauce from heat.
  • Stir drained macaroni into the cheese sauce to coat. Divide macaroni between two 9x13-inch baking dishes.
  • Mix crushed potato chips, 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese, and Parmesan cheese in a bowl. Top the macaroni with the potato chip mixture evenly. Spray the potato chip mixture with cooking spray.
  • Bake in preheated oven until the crust is golden brown and the sauce is bubbling, 35 to 45 minutes.
