We had a Christmas Party to go to tonight and we were all supposed to bring a dish to pass. I wanted to bring something that I KNEW the kids would like. I called my friend Kim and asked her for her Mac ‘n Cheese bake (that’s what I call it at least). 🙂 It was a MAJOR hit with all the kids there tonight…9 total!
Here is the recipe, very simple. Enjoy!
Mix the following in a mixing bowl:
2 cups of uncooked elbow macaroni
2 cups of cottage cheese (you can use low fat is you want)
2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese, for a little more punch use sharp cheddar 🙂
Once everything is mixed, spread it out in a 9×13 pan.
Then boil 3 cups of water and then pour that over the mixture in the pan.
Bake at 325 degrees for 45 minutes.
With 10 minutes to go, pull the pan out and sprinkle a little more cheese and add breadcrumbs if you want.
It may seem watery when you pull it out, if so it is fine. Let it cool and it will thicken.
Almost all finished…success! ;0
