Macaroni And Cheese Recipe
This is the recipe that my MIL gave me when I first married her son. It has been a staple in our house for 15 years and 4 kids later it goes quite a ways. You can use whatever kind of cheeses that you want. The ones posted are only a guideline.

Great mac and cheese! Even my ultra-picky 4 year old loves it, and he just asked for seconds, telling me he'd "eat it every day." That's saying something! I used half Velveeta and the other half of the cheese was a blend of Jack, Colby and Cheddar. Thanks for posting this!


This looks really good being a man who loves his hearty food i like to add a little bit of cooked bacon just for that smokey flavor....but thats just me


GOTTA TRY THIS!!!


This is my kind of mac & cheese! I prefer a creamier dish, so the idea of velveeta and maybe a bit of chedder for sharpness sounds way to good! I agree w/ Tmac6689...bacon is always a good thing!


I just made this tonight and it was wonderful! Creamy, just the way I like it. I used 12 oz velveeta and about 5 oz of monterey jack and maybe 1/2 tsp ground mustard. YUMM!! Will definatly be making this again...and again!


I am going to try this out tonight. I don't plan to use Velveeta but a blend of 4 cheese shredded that I have. I will post how it turns out. I am looking forward to trying it out! :-)


I've made this recipe twice and both times it was a hit! I'm a Correctional Officer by trade and the first time I made this was for our Christmas party. The guys loved it. My wife thinks it great with pork chops. I added the ground mustard and it really balances out the cheese. Great recipe!


My husbnd thinks I'm the greatest cook livin'. thankyou for your creamy, easy delicious dish.


Another great dish!


This is just what I've been looking for, it looks great! Thanks so much, I'll be trying this soon.
