Ingredients
2 cups of macaroni
2 cups of grated cheese (I use cheddar and monterrey jack, but you can use Anne's favorite cheese. Most recipes call for sharp cheddar, fyi)
1/4 cup of butter
3 TBSP of all purpose flour
2 cups of milk
breadcrumbs
Oven to 350 degrees, grease a 2 quart casserole dish. (I use a lasagna pan)
Cook macaroni and drain (but not till it gets too soft), put into dish.
After macaroni cools a little, mix in the grated cheese.
In a sauce pan, melt butter. Blend in flour. Add milk slowly, mixing with the flour and butter. I usually whisk to make sure there is no lumps. Bring to a boil and then simmer for about 1 minute, stirring constantly. You want it to start to thicken a little. (if you like more seasonings, like salt, pepper, etc. add to the milk mixture)
Pour over mac and cheese in dish. You might have to mix it a little so it gets all around the mac.
Top with bread crumbs. Bake for 30 minutes.
