Christy, I’m pretty new to your site, and just wanted to thank you I have been trying lots of your recipes, you make cooking feel easy (this is great for me). My family loves this macaroni and cheese. I have made this now 2 times, and they are asking when I’m going to make it again.

Christy

I make my mac and cheese Exactly like this… have for as long as I can remember..and I’m 57!!!!!! Try boiling sliced potatoes and using them as you would the macaroni. You have to slice them in rounds or they’re not as good!! Boil them with salt and pepper added to your water drain and then add your cheese milk and butter. Stir gently as not to break up the potatoes much. Cook on low until the cheese is melted and all is incorporated!!! Oh goodness. This is something I have to make for every holiday and family function soooooo easy but my family….. and I have a very large immediate family 5 kids plus in law children and 11 grands….. love them!!!!!
Thanks
Teresa Clifton

Love, Love, Love Mac and Cheese! And this is the way I make it!!
My stepdad taught me how to make it this way a long long long time ago!!

I do add a little cayenne pepper and some hot sauce to mine, but we like ours to have a little bite.

I missed this post yesterday – funny ’cause I made mac and cheese for dinner last night (you must have been sending me telepathic signals or something). I have to admit that I like your other version better than this, only because I have always hated the taste of Velveeta. I don’t know why – I just do! The version I made last night is from a Mennonite cookbook that I LOVE. It’s baked and has milk and egg, cheese (of course) and saltine cracker crumbs (instead of flour). Anyhoo….thanks for doing what you do and keep it up. I love your site!

uhm….
bad mac n’ cheese – yup.
I was teaching my nephew to cook – and mac n’ cheese was the last piece of our evening meal. We had a large pot of a similar recipe of mac n’ cheese on the front burner. BUT I had way more cheeeeeeeesy soupy stuff than noodles so I put some more water on to boil on the back burner. I was hot and tired….so I went in the other room to sit down/wait.

Me from the Family room to him in the kitchen: Is the water was boiling?

Nephew K: “yup it is”!

Me – still relaxing in the FR: “Okay pour the noodles in the water and when they get done cooking we’ll be back in business.”

Nephew K: “OKAY”.

I expected his immediate reappearance….when things got suspiciously quiet in the kitchen.

Me: K, What ya doing?

Nephew K: “Just stirring in the noodles. I want to make sure it’s all mixed up real good.”

Me: “Okay, make sure you set the timer for the noodles.”

Silence.
dead silence.

K’s head pops around the corner – “Auntie, what’s the water boilin’ for?”

ME…jump off the couch and see his new crunchy mac n’ cheese creation…non-salvageable….

but the birds and the deer had a yummy dinner.
