Stove Top Macaroni and Cheese

Recipe #129252 | 30 min | 10 min prep | add private note

By: HeatherDiane
Jul 11, 2005

I got this from the Food Network - Alton Brown did an episode on macaroni and cheese and I have been meaning to try this ever since I watched the episode. I tried it the other day and it turned out great! I used rotini noodles instead of elbow and I think that works better as they noodles catch the cheesy sauce really well. I had been looking for an alternative to the boxed stuff (too many preservatives) and this is a keeper! If you use pre shredded cheese it's as easy as the box stuff, too. I doubled the recipe and it tastes even better the next day!

    Yum, yum, yum! I haven't even served this yet (I'm snitching from the pan while waiting for the other items to finish, and I think I've already eaten my whole share). Thanks for the super easy recipe! I will be making this again for sure!

    What a marvelous indulgence. I used whole wheat rotini and cut the butter back to 2T just to save a few. This is so rich with cheese I don't think I'd even notice if I were to use fat free evaporated milk next time. I thought the seasoning was perfect and the creamy texture was to-die-for.

    Out of 7 kids, 4 loved it, and 3 didn't like it. My 5 yo said it tasted like eggs. I might try this one again but double everything except the eggs. Thanks.
