There is nothing more comforting than a giant bowl of macaroni and cheese. I have loved mac and cheese since I was little and I still do! A nice bowl of cheesy goodness can make a really bad day seem a bit brighter!
When I was searching for recipes to use for my In the Kitchen with Gooseberry Patch project, a partnership with the Real Farmwives of America, this recipe caught my eye. I’m cooking from 101 Homestyle Favorites, and this is a new favorite!
The recipe is as follows:
1/4c flour
1/8t pepper
2 1/2 c. milk
1/2 c. grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 c. shredded Cheddar cheese
3/4 c. cubed Velveeta
1/4 c. cream cheese
8 ounce package of pasta, cooked
Start by combining the flour and pepper in a small saucepan. Whisk in milk and bring to a boil, cooking for one minute and stirring constantly. Except when you have to take a picture!
Reduce the heat and add the cheese and stir until melted.
Boil your pasta
And then mix the cheese mixture and pasta together. Put into a greased 9×9 pan. I actually made a bit more pasta and used a 9×13 pan. Bake uncovered at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. Oh was this good!

One of my favorite dishes but one I don’t make much because the recipes I found required making a rue first and then adding milk and cheese. This looks much easier, thanks for posting! 🙂
