My spin on my Mom's mac & cheese recipe from years ago. The green chilies give it just the right bit of flavor but no heat. Stick to your ribs and always a winner! Enjoy!
Ingredients
- 1 - 1 Lb. Box elbow macaroni shopping list
- 2 Blocks monterey jack cheese, cut into slices shopping list
- 2 Two cup bags Kraft Sharp Shredded cheddar cheese shopping list
- 2 Small cans Old el Paso Chopped green chilies shopping list
- 2 Cups milk shopping list
- 2 eggs shopping list
- salt & pepper shopping list
- butter shopping list
How to make it
- Boil macaroni just until tender, drain.
- In non-metal 9x13 pan, layer a thin layer of elbows, top with a layer of Monterey jack, then a layer of cheddar, then sprinkle with about ½ a can of chilies on top.
- Continue layering to use all ingredients, usually ends up about 3-4 layers deep.
- Top with remaining cheeses and chilies. Beat eggs in milk, add salt and pepper to taste, pour over noodles until milk rises about ¼ inch from top of noodles.
- Depending on the pan, you may need to use part of a third egg and another cup of milk, just keep that same ratio.
- Top with pats of butter, sprinkle with more salt and pepper.
- Bake at 350 degrees for about 1 hour, or until brown on top and bubbling.
- For a change of pace, sometimes I'll add a meat layer for a one dish casserole meal, ie, chopped ham and peas, or brown some ground beef with onions and garlic. Yum!
