Homemade Macaroni and Cheese



Maureen has mentioned this a couple times on her blog and it is super yummy and very creamy. Kinsey said it was too cheesy, Emerson ate a huge amount. I think Kinsey will come around so it's a keeper.

Ingredients:
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons flour
3 cups warm milk
16 oz shredded cheese (sharp cheddar is yummy!)
1 pound cooked elbow macaroni (I used wagon wheel so Emerson can eat it)

Instructions:
Melt butter in a saucepan. Add flour and whisk until flour is evenly distributed. Add warm milk and whisk till thickened and bubbly. Stir in cheese one cup at a time. Put cooked macaroni in a baking dish. Pour milk/cheese mixture over noodles and stir well.

You can top with breadcrumbs and bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes, if you prefer. Mix in yummy peas, corn or chicken, whatever you prefer.
