Macaroni and Cheese


When you’re craving comfort food like macaroni and cheese, making it out of the box just doesn’t hit the spot. Instead, indulge with cheddar and Parmesan cheese in my favorite mac and cheese recipe. It makes a great side dish, but I don't mind eating it as an entree. It's one meatless meal no one will complain about!

Baked Macaroni and Cheese

Ingredients

  • 1 (16 ounce) package elbow macaroni
  • 1/2 cup evaporated milk
  • 2 eggs
  • 8 ounces sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 3 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tablespoon butter

Steps

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Bring a pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add macaroni shells and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until al dente; drain.
  3. In a medium sized mixing bowl, mix evaporated milk, eggs, sour cream, salt, and pepper.
  4. Butter a 9 by 13 glass dish.
  5. Layer macaroni shells, cheddar cheese, and milk mixture in the dish until it is full. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese and pour melted butter on top.
  6. Bake in a preheated oven for 20 to 30 minutes (I usually do 25).
