Macaroni and Cheese



All my little billy's love mac and cheese so this is something I make a lot.
One even licks the bowl.







My granny used to make the absolute best m&c but nobody thought about getting her recipe and now she is 93 and suffers from dementia so the recipe is gone. Anyway this is a good recipe and will do until I find one close to granny's.



1 8 oz package elbow macaroni, cooked and drained

2 Tablespoons butter

2 Tablespoons flour

2 cups milk

2 squirts dijon mustard

1 8 oz block cheddar cheese, shredded

Melt butter in large saucepan over medium heat, add flour and stir until mixed (about 1 minute). Add milk and dijon mustard and continue stirring until it starts to thicken. I also season with salt and pepper. Add macaroni and add 3/4 of the cheese. Mix well and then spoon into a greased casserole dish. Top with the remaining cheese and a few pats of butter. Bake 350 degrees for 30 minutes or so or until it starts to bubble.
