Nanny Gs Macaroni And Cheese Recipes

SUNNY'S CREAMY 5-CHEESE MAC 'N' CHEESE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Butter the bottom and sides of a deep 13-by-9-inch baking dish.
• Make the sauce. In a large bowl, mix the ingredients in order, combining completely between additions. Start by adding the flour, paprika, ground mustard, garlic, scallions, hot sauce, cream cheese, a pinch of salt and more grinds of black pepper than normal. Mix this until combined completely. In a liquid measure, mix the heavy cream and pasta water together and add slowly to the bowl while whisking. Add the Cheddar, Gouda, mozzarella and Pecorino Romano cheeses.
• Bake. Add the pasta to the bowl of liquid and stir until the liquid seeps into the elbows and everything is distributed evenly. Pour into the prepared dish. Level with the back of your spoon. Toss together the Cheddar and mozzarella in a small bowl and sprinkle evenly over the top. Bake until the edges are bubbly and the top is golden brown, 35 to 40 minutes.

NANNY'S SIMPLE MACARONI AND CHEESE

Steps:

• Boil pasta according to package in salted water.
• For firmer pasta reduce boiling time by a few minutes.
• Drain.
• Grease a deep casserole dish (I use a spray).
• Place a layer of macaroni, enough to cover the bottom, in the casserole dish.
• Add a layer of cheese slices covering the macaroni.
• Very lightly season with salt and pepper (I actually skip this and we add salt and pepper to taste on our individual servings).
• Repeat these layers until you are out of pasta.
• Pour milk over the casserole until the milk almost reaches the top of the casserole dish (It doesn't take much because the dish is already full of pasta and cheese).
• Bake covered for about 45 minutes to an hour in a 350 degree oven.
• You'll know it is finished cooking when the milk is no longer liquid.
• Sometimes I add leftover ham chunks to the layers.
• Cook time and servings are approximate!

NANNY'S MACARONI AND CHEESE

Steps:

• Make pasta. While pasta is cooking heat milk with the Velveeta (cut up to melt quicker). Mix until melted and smooth.
• Drain pasta, and pour into baking pan. Add most of the cheese sauce. Tuck tablespoons full of crushed tomatoes into areas around the pan. Cover loosely with aluminum foil.
• Bake at 350 degrees for about 45 minutes to one hour. Use the leftover sauce for reheating if there are any leftovers.

BAKED MACARONI AND CHEESE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 2-quart baking dish.
• Boil macaroni in a large pot of salted water until barely done, about 5 minutes. Drain and set aside.
• Whisk together milk and egg in a large bowl. Stir in cheese and butter.
• Place par-boiled macaroni in the prepared baking dish. Pour milk mixture over macaroni, season with salt and pepper, and stir until combined. Press mixture evenly into the baking dish.
• Bake, uncovered, in the preheated oven until top is browned, 30 to 40 minutes.
