A recipe from Ricardo that is popular with kids. So I had to try it. My son is beginning kindergarten tomorrow and I wanted to do something he'll like. And this recipe is a winner with it. With us also. It's so easy to do.
Ingredients:
1 onion, finely chopped
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons flour
2 cups milk, warm
2 cups macaroni (or other small pasta)
1/2 cup cheez whiz
1/2 cup orange cheddar cheese, grated
1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, grated
1 teaspoon paprika
1 pinch cayenne pepper (i omitted it because he doesn't like when it's spicy)
salt (also omitted)
Directions:
1. In a medium saucepan, soften the onion in butter. Add flour and stir 1 minute. Add warm milk. Stir until the mixture has thickened.
2. Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, cook pasta in a large quantity of salted boiling water until al dente. Drain pasta and add to the sauce.
3. Add all cheeses, paprika, cayenne pepper and salt. Stir until cheese has melted.
