white mac and cheese

Hey my lovelies!

Apparently we've experienced a cold snap with the weather here in Chicago. What better way to warm up the house than with home made macaroni and cheese? This time around I only used white cheeses and made it extra cheezy. The white cheddar definitely gives it a kick. Hope you like it :)

Cheezy White Macaroni and Cheese



Ingredients

  • 2 cups of cooked desired pasta  (if you don't like your macaroni n cheese super creamy and oh so cheezy, add another cup of pasta)
  • 1/4 cup of butter
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp pepper
  • 1/4 cup of flour
  • 2 cups of milk
  • 2 cups of white cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 1 cup of munster cheese, shredded
  • 1 cup of colby cheese, shredded (or colby jack)
  • 1/2 tsp of Worcestershire sauce ( this isn't really needed, but I really like the bite that the sauce gives)
  • 1/2 to 1 full cup of bread crumbs 

Directions

  1. Preheat oven 375
  2. In a sauce pan over low heat, melt butter
  3. Stir in salt and pepper.
  4. Stir in milk then gently sift flour.
  5. Put heat to low flame. Mix in cheeses.
  6. Add Worcestershire sauce and stir.
  7. Take of heat.
  8. Slowly add the pasta into the cheese sauce. Stir gently.
  9. Pour macaroni and cheese into a baking dish then place it  in the preheated oven and bake for 25 mins.
  10. Take out the mac n cheese. Sprinkle bread crumbs evenly over the dish and then place mac n cheese back in oven and bake for another 5 to 10 mins.
  11. Take out of oven and let stand for 10 mins before serving. 



Stay hungry my friends!
