Almost Grandma’s Macaroni & Cheese
There are a list of things that I know I will never make as well as Grandma. Believe me I’ve tired many times over to make oven fried chicken, gravy and of course every child’s favorite, Mac & Cheese. My children’s response is always the same, “this is really good, but it’s just not quite like Grandmas.” Today that changed. I was jumping and cheering like a crazy woman, but I had finally done it! After years of trying I finally made Mac & Cheese that my girls smiled and said, “it’s almost just like Grandma’s.” Now you have to understand that Grandma doesn’t have a secret recipe tucked away in a secret cabinet with some kind of code to break, she just cooks and people love it. She shares what she does and it always comes in measurements like a little of this or a little of that. I am proud to share this delicious dish with all of you. Here is Mac & Cheese to cheer about.
- 16 oz. bag macaroni
- 1 lb. Velveeta cheese, cubed
- 1 Tbsp. butter
- ¼ – ½ cup milk
- salt & pepper to taste
- Prepare macaroni according to package instructions. Be sure not to over cook.
- Drain macaroni and add back to pan. Add in butter and stir.
- Return pan to stove on low. Add cheese a little at a time, stirring as you add.
- Add ¼ cup milk and stir.
- If macaroni seems sticky add a little more milk until it is nice and smooth.
- Add salt & pepper.
