Old Fashioned Mac n Cheese

1/4 Cup margarine

1/4 Cup of flour

2 Cups of milk (Bob claims whole milk is the best)

1 tsp of salt

2 Cups (8 oz) extra sharp cheddar cheese, shredded

1-7 oz package of macaroni



Heat oven to 350. Make white sauce with margarine, flour, milk and salt;add cheese, reserving 1/2 Cup;stir until melted. Layer 1/2 macaroni and cheese sauce in 1 1/2 quart casserole; repeat layers. Top with remaining cheese. Bake @350, 20-25 minutes. Serves 6-8.



***My mom always added a little pimento and onion for flavor and sometimes
topped with wheat germ

and she claimed that you should only use extra sharp cheddar cheese to

make the difference in the way it tasted. Thanks MOM!

  1. I make this all the time and sometimes adding a little garlic powder gives it some extra flavor too! Top it with parm cheese and you're good to go!
