I’m always trying new recipes searching for THE one that most resembles my grams recipe. I don’t unfortunately have her recipe. I think I finally found it though.
1 2/3 cups dry, small elbow or shells macaroni cooked and drained
1 large bunch green onions, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons flour
1 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper
1 (12 ounce) can evaporated milk
3/4 cup 1% milk
2 tablespoons butter
2 + 1/2 cups shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. Grease 2-quart casserole dish.
- Combine evaporated milk, 1% milk and butter in medium saucepan.
- Stir in flour and pepper.
- Cook over medium-heat, stirring constantly, until mixture comes to a boil.
- Boil for 1 minute.
- Remove from heat.
- Stir in 2 cups cheese until melted.
- Add macaroni and onions, blending well. It will be a little soupy, but that’s okay!
- Pour into prepared casserole dish.
- Top with remaining cheese.
- Bake for 40 to 45 minutes or until cheese is melted and light brown.
I love the simple things in life… Lie homemade mac and cheese. YUM!!!
Mac and cheese would be my last supper request. It is my all time favorite comfort food! Love this recipe.
I don’t know why but I am a terrible mac and cheese maker. My mom didn’t make it much, it was always macaroni with oil and garlic. I have not tried the evaporated milk, maybe it will help me!! 🙂
