Mac and Cheese with Mom’s Recipe

This dish is special. It brings back memories as a child when I used to run in from outside knowing mac and cheese was ready. It has been my favorite meal since the first time I ate it. The cheese sauce is gooey and just sticks to the noodles making every bite delicious. I also must mention how inexpensive this meal is and you will be left with leftovers. With these simple steps and ingredients, you can create this amazing meal.

What you will need:

Bowtie Noodles

1 Bag of Monterey Jack Cheese

1 Bag of Cheddar Jack Cheese

Milk

Flour

Onion

Butter

Instructions:

First boil your noodles in a large pot of water for about 10 minutes. At 10 minutes drain your pasta and set aside. While that is going on, chop up half an onion into small pieces. In a medium pot on medium heat, melt 2 ½ tablespoons of butter. Throw your onions into the pot with the butter and sauté them until they are translucent. Turn the heat down to medium-low and place 1 tablespoon of flour into the medium pot and mix with the butter and onions. Slowly pour in 1 ½ cups of milk and stir constantly. Once all the milk is in, let it heat up a little bit. Slowly start to pour in a bag of Monterey Jack cheese while stirring constantly. Once the first bag is incorporated start pouring in your second bag, don’t use the whole bag only go until you’re happy with the consistency of the cheese sauce. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit a little before you’re done with your cheese sauce and noodles. Combine your cheese sauce and noodles when done in the large pot you boiled your noodles in. Stir. Place the mac and cheese in an oven dish, sprinkle some breadcrumbs, and place in the oven until the top starts to boil. Once that is done take it out of the oven and you’re ready to serve!
