Macaroni & Cheese

Let me tell you…my husband makes some YUMMY Mac & Cheese! We decided to make this for Sean’s birthday party…and, of course, it was a hit! It wasn’t quite as creamy & cheesy as normal, but it was still quite tasty! More gourmet, if you will

• 4 tbsp. flour
• Salt & pepper to taste
• 3 1/4 cups milk
• 4 cups shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 pound box macaroni

• 1 tbsp olive oil

Directions:

1. Melt butter on medium low heat.
2. Add flour and cook 5-10 minutes, until it smells like almonds
3. Add salt & pepper
4. Slowly add milk & 3 cups cheddar cheese
5. Cook pasta according to package directions
6. Combine cooked and drained pasta to cheese mixture
7. Put in a 9×13″ casserole dish (Note that there may be extra, this is okay, just put in another smaller casserole dish)

9. Bake at 350* for 25-30 minutes
