At my house, you will often find boxes of macaroni and cheese in my pantry. It is easy to cook and everyone likes it, so I keep it as a staple at all times. I often get bored with making macaroni and cheese from a box, so I will make my baked macaroni and cheese recipe that is really a hit, especially with me!

Very similar to how I make it… I think next time I will try using this recepie! I normally just put the cheddar cheese and then sprinkle paprika on top to get the crusty taste/look.
This looks so good! My great aunt used to make homemade mac & cheese and this recipe brings back fond memories.
This looks so yummy! I’m craving some mac and cheese now!

I love homemade Mac and Cheese, I won’t eat any other kind. My kids will eat the stuff in the blue box, I won’t touch it. Homemade is just so creamy and I love a nice top crust. I used to use elbows now I use Cavatappi, give it try they are like an elbow with just more twists!
What are the instructions for cooking it?
