Lazy Baked Macaroni and Cheese

 

This is a custardy, cafeteria-style macaroni and cheese.

 

1 pound macaroni, NOT prepared

1 pound shredded cheese (I like to use half cheddar and half jack)

1 small onion, diced

2 tbsp margarine or butter

2 tsp mustard powder

1 tsp white pepper

1/2 tsp cayenne pepper

2 eggs (egg substitute should work)

2 cans evaporated milk

2 cups water

 

Coat DRY macaroni with margarine, then with shredded cheese and onion in a

deep, 3 quart size or larger casserole dish. (if you use a 9x13 pan,

macaroni will be too dry).

In separate bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, water, mustard powder,

white pepper and cayenne. Pour over dry macaroni mixture. Cover, bake 350 F

degrees for 30-45 minutes. Uncover and bake another 15-20 minutes for a nice

browned crust. Serve with a green salad.
