Far Fetched Mac Cheese Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Prepare the elbow macaroni according to package directions.
• Meanwhile, melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium high heat. Stir in the flour until a cream colored paste forms. Then pour in the milk and stir constantly until this comes to a hard boil, then stir for 1 more minute. Remove from heat and set aside.
• When the macaroni is cooked, spread 1/2 of it into the bottom of a lightly greased 9x13-inch baking dish. Then layer 1/2 of the grated onion, 1/2 of the salt and pepper and 1/2 of each of the cheeses. Repeat this one more time: macaroni, onion, salt and pepper and cheeses, and then pour the reserved white sauce over all. Top off with small pats of butter to taste.
• Cover and bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 45 minutes.

Steps:

• Cook the macaroni and set aside.
• In a pot, melt the butter and mix in salt and pepper.
• Slowly add in the flour, stirring continuously.
• Gradually add the milk and stir the mixture until smooth.
• Add the cheese on a low heat and melt into the mixture.
• Once the mixture is at your desired consistency, mix in the drained macaroni.

Steps:

• Cook 8 ounces elbow macaroni in salted boiling water as the label directs for al dente. Reserve 1 cup cooking water, then drain.
• Melt 4 tablespoons butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add 1/4 cup flour and cook, whisking, until smooth, 2 minutes. Whisk in 2 cups whole milk and 1 teaspoon kosher salt. Bring to a simmer and cook until thickened, 5 minutes. Stir in 6 ounces each shredded Colby Jack and cheddar until smooth, then add the pasta, thinning with the reserved cooking water as needed. (The sauce will thicken as it bakes.)
• Transfer to a 3-quart baking dish. Prepare your topping; sprinkle over the mac and cheese. Bake at 400 degrees F until golden, 15 to 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 3-quart casserole dish.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the macaroni and cook until tender, about 7 minutes; strain well. Transfer the macaroni to a large bowl, add the butter and toss to coat.
• Whisk together the milk, eggs and 2 teaspoons salt in a medium bowl. Add the milk-egg mixture to the macaroni; add the Cheddar and stir until it is evenly distributed. Pour into the prepared casserole dish.
• Bake until the custard is set and the top is browned and bubbling, 30 to 35 minutes.

Steps:

• Cook macaroni noodles in salted water until just before being tender. (Noodles will continue to bake in dish.).
• While noodles are cooking, beat eggs in a large bowl.
• Add milk to eggs and stir in all other ingredients except the 8 ounces of cheese.
• Combine drained noodles with egg mixture.
• Pour into buttered 9 x 13 inch baking dish.
• Begin baking at 450 degrees for 15 minutes. Then reduce heat to 375 degrees and bake 15 more minutes until becomes bubbly and slight brown at edges. Sprinkle 8 ounces of cheese on top and bake for last 5 minutes. Do not over bake. Remove from oven and let sit for 5 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease an oven-proof soup crock or 1 cup baking dish.
• Fill a small saucepan with water, and bring to a boil. Stir in the macaroni; boil until cooked but still firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain well, and reserve.
• In the same saucepan, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Stir in the flour, salt, pepper, onion powder, and milk; whisk until smooth. Cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Reduce heat to low, and whisk in 1/3 cup cheese, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and hot sauce. Stir in the cooked macaroni. Spoon the macaroni and cheese into the prepared dish. Sprinkle with bread crumbs and 1 tablespoon cheddar cheese.
• Bake, uncovered, until the cheese is melted and the macaroni is heated through, about 10 minutes.
