Whether it’s a Sunday afternoon lunch or a weekday side dish, this homemade macaroni & cheese is a family favorite.  What’s best about this dish, is there’s always leftovers to package in individual containers for later on in the week; and unlike the boxed stuff, this homemade version stores and reheats well.  Come Thursday, I’ll love myself for having something quick and easy to pop in the microwave for my picky eater or a quick side for PB&J after gymnastics on Saturday.

Many recipes for homemade macaroni & cheese call for flour; but, quite frankly, I don’t like the floury taste.

Directions:

  1. Boil pasta in salted water until al dente (do not overcook); drain
  2. Heat oven to 350 degrees
  3. Add butter, soup and milk; mix
  4. Add 1 cup cheese; mix
