This is not the stuff in the "blue box". This is real mac and cheese. Vary the cheeses for different flavors or use a combination of them.

1/2 cup finely chopped onion
2 tablespoons of flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 1/4 cups milk

Directions:
  • Cook the macaroni according to package directions; drain.

  • In a medium saucepan, melt butter. Cook onion in butter until tender.

  • Stir in flour, salt and pepper. Add milk all at once and stir until thickened and bubbly

  • Remove from heat and stir in 2 1/2 cups cheese until melted

  • Combine cheese and macaroni and pour into a 9'x13" baking dish coated with cooking spray.

  • Sprinkle with remaining cheese

  • Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes


Servings: 6
