AWESOME ITALIAN MACARONI AND CHEESE
This magical macaroni dish will make a disappearing act on the dinner table. I've not only served it up as a main dish during the week, but I've served it as a side dish on the Thanksgiving table. It's got ham and cheese, but I think the secret ingredients are the half-and-half and eggs. Don't forget to cook the noodles with the chicken bouillon cubes for a really flavorful noodle. Enjoy!

MEATLESS ITALIAN MACARONI BAKE
Dont be deceived, this recipe looks singularly ordinary so one may be tempted to alter it...but then it'll have all the subtlety of mac 'n' cheese w/ tomato...Please try it as written, discover the subtlety and simplicity of it all...As for me, this 'casserole' quickly became a favorite meal, particularly since I usually have all the ingredients already on hand...I imagine it could also be adapted to the microwave, but I'll leave that to the alleged experts LOL

- To make macaroni and cheese first remove the rind from all the cheeses. Then turn on the oven to 350°F (180°C) and put the water for pasta to boil.
- Next we have to prepare a cream of cheeses, so in a saucepan put the butter and once melted add the flour then stir it to make it like a paste.
- Keep stirring and when the mixture begins to brown (just a little) pour the milk in the same pot, and continue stirring until you get a creamy mixture (this is called bechamel). After done you can add salt, pepper and nutmeg to your personal taste.
- Add a part of the grated cheeses keeping aside a tablespoon of each, then stir until all ingredients are well mixed. Let it cook a few minutes until it's all melted and you have formed cheese sauce.

- Prep: Line two 15in x 21in baking sheets with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Preheat oven to 350F with the baking rack in the middle. Gather all of your ingredients and equipment.
- Next, fold the whipped meringue into the almond mixture, in 3 additions. Continue folding until the mixture falls off the whisk like lava, forming a thick ribbon, that you can draw a number 8 with. The mixture shouldn't be so stiff that it holds its shape, but it shouldn't be so loose that it dissolves into itself and does not maintain the ribbon. It is better to for the mixture to be slightly stiff than too loose.
- Fill the prepared piping bag fitted with the 5/8th inch round plain tip (Ateco 808) with the macaron batter. You can drape the empty bag over a tall glass to make it easier to fill the pastry bag.
- Bake:Place into a preheated to 350F oven and reduce the heat to 325F right away. Bake for 10-12 minutes (best to set the timer). Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely before removing off the parchment paper.How to know when macarons are ready: open the oven and touch the top of the macaron - if the top shell doesn't wiggle too much from the "foot" of the macaron, the macarons are ready. If it still wiggles, add 1 minute of baking time and check again. Note the baking time and set the timer for this time for the next batch.Bake the rest of the macarons in the same fashion, preheating the oven to 350F each time a new baking sheet is placed in the oven.
