Bohemian Macaroni And Cheese Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Cook the macaroni until still slightly firm. Drain and set aside.
• In a small bowl, beat the egg. In a large pot, melt the butter and sprinkle in the flour. Whisk together over medium-low heat. Cook for a couple of minutes, whisking constantly. Don't let it burn. Pour in the milk, add the mustard and whisk until smooth. Cook until very thick, about 5 minutes. Reduce the heat to low.
• Take 1/4 cup of the sauce and slowly pour it into the beaten egg, whisking constantly to avoid cooking the eggs. Whisk together until smooth. Pour the egg into the sauce, whisking constantly. Stir until smooth. Add in the cheese and stir to melt. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt and the pepper. Add any additional spices if desired. Taste the sauce and add more salt and seasoned salt as needed! DO NOT UNDERSALT.
• Pour in the drained, cooked macaroni and stir to combine. Serve immediately (while it's still very creamy) or pour into a buttered baking dish, top with extra cheese and bake until bubbly and golden on top, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Fry the bacon in a skillet over medium-high heat until slightly crisp, about 8 minutes. Remove from the pan and cut into bite-size pieces.
• In a separate pan, cook the onions in the butter over a low heat until caramelized, 20 to 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Use a fork to crumble the gorgonzola.
• Put the bacon, caramelized onions and crumbled gorgonzola into separate bowls. Serve as delicious toppings for both sliders and macaroni cheese.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350; F. Set a large pot of water on high heat.
• Meanwhile, begin the sauce by making a roux: in a medium saucepan melt the butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour. Continue to stir this roux over medium heat for two to three minutes.
• The roux should be cooked and free of the flour flavor but still light in color.
• Gradually add milk, whisking briskly to maintain a smooth sauce.
• Cook the sauce for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to avoid scorching.
• When sauce thickens, add cheeses, salt and spices to the sauce, and stir until all the cheese has melted. I make my sauces in the microwave; turns out great and never scorches.
• Somewhere during this sauce-cooking process, your pasta water has started boiling. The original is made with Penne noodles. Add a generous amount of salt to the water and cook the pasta until almost but not quite al dente (two minutes before the package directions indicate). You want barely undercooked pasta so that it can finish in the oven later. Halt the cooking by draining the pasta and rinsing with cold water. Return pasta to pot.
• Pour sauce over pasta and stir until completely incorporated. The combination should be fairly saucy, almost soupy.
• Dish the mixture into a buttered 9-13 pan and sprinkle with extra grated cheeses and cayenne. Bake, uncovered, for 30 minutes, until you have beautiful, browned edges. Those edges will be a welcome and flavorful addition to each serving.
• Let the dish sit for 5 to 10 minutes before serving. I divided this in 2 containers and froze one.

Steps:

• Add the onion, green pepper and celery to the cooked macaroni; stir.
• Add 1/2 of the cheese & stir over low heat until melted.
• Season & stir in evaporated milk.
• Spoon into well-greased 8x8x2" baking pan & sprinkle remaining cheese evenly over top.
• Bake in a preheated oven at 350° for 20 minutes.
• Let stand for 10 minutes and cut into squares to serve.

Steps:

• Prepare both boxes of macaroni and cheese according to package directions.
• Meanwhile, in a large bowl mix together the chopped bell green pepper, onion, tomato, and crumbled bacon.
• Mix in prepared macaroni and cheese to large bowl with vegetables and bacon. Stir to incorporate ingredients evenly. Pour into a 9x13 inch baking dish.
• Bake in a preheated 350 degree F (175 degree C) oven for 45 to 60 minutes, or until crispy on top. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375° F.
• Boil pasta according to box instructions. After cooking, drain, then let cool for about 5 minutes in a medium-sized bowl while you chop and sauté the vegetables.
• Purée tofu until smooth.
• Next, pour melted butter over a bowl of noodles then stir.
• Add the chopped vegetables; stir. Then, add the coconut milk and pureed tofu to the mixture and stir followed by your choice of seasonings as listed above.
• Add 7 oz of shredded cheese and mix well.
• Spray a 8x8 baking pan with nonstick cooking spray and spread macaroni mixture in evenly.
• Top generously with the remainder of shredded cheese until pasta mix is covered. Sprinkle paprika on top to add a little more color.
• Place the filled pan in the oven and bake for 35 minutes or until golden.
• Let cool, then cut into 9 squares.
• It is delicious hot or room-temperature.
• Enjoy!
