Mac & Cheese Recipes
We are hosting our first Thanksgiving this year. I am wanting to make mac and cheese but I have never made real mac & cheese. I am needing help with recipes. I would like to do a crock pot mac and cheese but am open to other ones.
Thank you in advance for your help ladies. I'm just not having much luck finding something that I am sure will be delish online.
Re: Mac & Cheese Recipes
This is my mom's ex-mother in laws recipe. It is the best that I have ever had.
2 cups cooked elbow mac
16 oz sour cream
16 oz cottage cheese
2-4 cups grated cheese
2 eggs
Salt and Pepper to taste
Mix together and baked uncovered at 350 for 30-45 mins until bubbly.
Here's my microwave mac and cheese.I typically double the recipe to have leftovers. I'm sure it could be done in the crock pot, just will take a little longer. It's delicious!
8oz macaroni (about 2 c)
1 t salt
1 t olive oil
2T butter
1 c cheese, grated (I used monterrey and Colby jack because I think
it's creamier!)
8oz processed cheese
? c sour cream
? cup milk
Boil water with salt and oil. Add noodles and cook until tender. Drain
and set aside. Place butter in a microwave safe dish and melt butter.
Add cooked and drained macaroni, cheeses, sour cream and milk,
stirring until well mixed. Microwave for 6-8 minutes, stirring every
three minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
Here's my great aunt's. On a side note, I'm from Greenville! Small world.

This is my H's:
1 box corkscrew noodles
5 cups cheedar cheese
1 cup buttermilk
1/4 stick butter
1 cup corn flakes
Salt/Pepper
Boil noodles until al dente. Drain. Place in a greased baking dish. Mix noodles with cheese, buttermilk, and drop in pats of butter. Salt and pepper to taste. Put in the oven at 375 degrees for 30 minutes. I stir halfway through and check the cheese consistency. With five minutes left sprinkle crushed cornflakes on top.
DH loves this... it might have helped me get a ring...
