Mac 'n' Cheese


Books loves to eat Macaroni and Cheese and always has. He loves the boxed kind, but his favorite is old-fashioned Mac 'n' Cheese done on the stove. Here is his favorite recipe:

Mac 'n' Cheese

cooked elbow macaroni
2 T butter
2 T flour
2 cups milk
1/2 lb American Cheese, chopped
shredded cheddar cheese to taste
10 shakes of salt

Melt butter in medium saucepan. Add flour and stir until a paste forms. Pour milk into pan. Add cheeses and salt. Stir continually until cheese melts and sauce comes to a boil, scraping the bottom of the pan.

Pour sauce over macaroni and serve. To reheat, add a splash of milk, microwave 30 seconds, and stir.

  1. Homemade Mac & Cheese is the BEST! One of the first things I make sure to teach my kids is how to make a white sauce, you can make soooo many things from there!

    I just popped by to see who's peeking at my recipes :) I hope you've tried some! That creamy ranch chicken is sooooo delicious! We just had it for dinner at enrichment on Thursday! LOVE it!
