An easy favorite passed down to me by my mother when I went away to college. Infinitely adjustable, this recipe never fails to provide a rich, creamy, cheezy batch of mac & cheese. Ingredients:
1 (10 ounce) can condensed tomato soup |
3/4 cup milk |
1/2 lb velveeta cheese |
elbow macaroni or shell pasta |
Directions:
1. Empty can of tomato soup into small saucepan.
2. Fill empty soup can 1/2 full of milk (your choice- skim, 1%, 2%, whole, etc.).
3. Pour into pan.
4. Stir to combine.
5. From a standard size Velveeta brick (typically a 2 lb. size), slice off 1/4 of the entire brick.
6. Cut into 1/2 cubes.
7. Place into soup/milk mixture.
8. Over medium heat, stir soup, milk, and cheese cubes to combine.
9. While cheese sauce is being prepared, prepare your choice of elbow macaroni or shell pasta per package directions.
10. Try to time pasta to be done and drained just prior to the cheese sauce being completed.
11. Taste the cheese sauce.
12. Too cheezy? Add a few splashes of milk.
13. Not cheezy enough? Add a cube or two more of Velveeta and stir to combine and melt.
14. When cheese sauce is to your liking, place the hot, drained (not rinsed) pasta back into the pasta pot.
15. Add cheese sauce from sauce pan.
16. Stir to combine cheese sauce and pasta.
17. Serve hot immediately.
