The wonderful homemade goodness of


this creamy Velveeta mac and cheese
makes it a staple side dish in my mother's
kitchen and in mine as well. It has tender
noodles and a crowd-pleasing golden
crumb topping. —Maria Costello, Monroe,

Test Kitchen Tips


It’s usually cheaper to buy
cheese in blocks rather than
already shredded. So purchase
large quantities of cheddar,
Monterey Jack and mozzarella,
then use a food processor to
shred it. Store the shredded
cheese in the freezer so you have
it when you need it.

Add some sugar to the salted


water when cooking macaroni or
spaghetti, the noodles have
much more flavor.

cheddar cheese recipes.

small pieces and put right in the
Mac and cheese. Delish!!
It's great in a crock pot too - does

crock pot. I skip the bread c...

LOVE this mac 'n cheese recipe! It's


easy, quick, creamy and ooey-gooey
cheesy! I made a couple changes so
I could use ingredients I had on
hand: I used a 12-ounce box of

Great recipe! The dried
mustard goes well with mac n
cheese. I also add a bay leaf to
the roux as it's cooking, then
remove it before pouring on the
pasta. I also add some Cayenne
pepper... not enough to make it
spicy, just a pinch or t...

Delicious! I made this as directed


with the exception of using crushed
cornflakes for the top instead of

this one is a winner. It's go...
