More Macaroni And Cheese, Please!

More Macaroni And Cheese, Please!

The basics of mac and cheese are this: you need some form of pasta, cheese, and something to make a creamy sauce.

The Pasta: Short, thick pasta shapes work best, like rotini, ziti, rigatoni, etc.

The Cheese: a good meltable cheese like Cheddar or Monterey Jack, or use a processed cheese like American or Velveeta

The Sauce: Milk, cream, and evaporated milk or cream soups all work.
