Homemade Macaroni & Cheese

It's easy and amazingly enough all five of my children like it more than the box stuff.

16oz of elbow macaroni
1 lb. of  cheese ( I like mild cheddar but it's up to your personal taste)
1 cup of milk

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees
  • Cook macaroni according to package directions
  • Pour half the macaroni is a 9 x13" pan 
  • Top evenly with half your cheese
  • Repeat above for second layer
  • Pour milk over the top
  • At this point you may salt and pepper if you like
  • Bake for 25 minutes

I sometimes add a pound of cooked hamburger in between the two layers.
