Cream of mushroom is a fail-safe hack for all sorts of creamy casseroles and other creations, so why not mac n' cheese? It's a marvelous baked mac, especially with that extra layer of melted cheddar on top.

ingredients

8 ounces uncooked elbow macaroni
1 egg
1/2 cup milk
1 can (10.75 ounce size) cream of mushroom soup
salt and pepper, to taste
2 tablespoons melted butter
1/2 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

directions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Grease a 9x9-inch baking dish.

Cook the macaroni as directed on the package and drain well.

Whisk together the egg and milk in a large saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a simmer, then stir in the cream of mushroom soup. Let simmer for 5 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Add the butter and olive oil. Mix well, then stir in the drained macaroni.

Transfer the mixture to the greased baking dish. Place in the oven and bake at 375 degrees F for 30-45 minutes.

Sprinkle the macaroni with the shredded cheese and bake for 10 more minutes, or until the cheese is melted. Serve the marvelous macaroni hot.

    We didn't really care much for this recipe. It looks really good, so I thought I'd give it a try.

  2. Marebear REVIEW:

    When I saw Vivica's recipe in the pamphlet that came with the vhs of SoulFood, I thought the dish would be dull. I made it & sooo easy, way delicious and less saturated fat than traditional baked mac & cheese.
