The average cost of fancy mac and cheese is 7 bucks and above. Obviously, storebought is much cheaper, but making your own oven mac and cheese with multiple kinds of cheese can be done for as little as 1 dollar per serving. And it's better than 99 percent of the other mac and cheeses out there. Take it or leave it bud.



Serving Size: 2-4


INGREDIENTS:

  • 1lb Macaroni

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter

  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour

  • 2.5 cups whole milk

  • 1 cup heavy cream

  • salt and pepper to taste

  • small pinch of nutmeg

  • 2.5 cup grated sharp cheddar

  • 2.5 cups grated Monterey jack cheese


INSTRUCTIONS:

Method:

  1. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil.

  2. Add macaroni and boil for up to 1 minute under the packaged instructions (8-9 minutes).

  3. In a large bowl, mix together the grated cheeses.

  4. In a large pot, add unsalted butter and heat over medium heat until melted. Once melted, whisk in all-purpose flour and cook for 1 minute while stirring often. Gradually stream in whole milk and heavy cream while whisking.

  5. Once thickened, add in the mixed grated cheeses (1.5 cups at a time) and whisk until melted and combined. Season to taste with salt and an optional pinch of grated nutmeg.

  6. Drain macaroni and pour into the cheese sauce and fold together. Coat thoroughly.

  7. In a lightly greased 9x13 baking dish, add in half of the cheesy macaroni followed by the remaining grated cheese and the other half of macaroni.

  8. Optionally toss the remaining grated cheese with chopped thyme and add to the top layer of the macaroni.

  9. Bake at 350F for 20-25 minutes. Blast it under the broiler until just browned on top.

I’m not going to pretend that the enormous asking price link wasn’t the main reason, but I’d simply outgrown the watch. Hunting one down was link far more exciting than actually having it on my wrist. The watch came to represent a time in my life and a time in my collecting journey instead of something link that I'd actually wear.

These new steel link Black Bays feature an array of link sunray dials in blue, anthracite (black with gilt indices), and light champagne. The link in-house calibers all have a 70-hour power reserve except for the 31mm model which has a 50-hour power reserve.

Do you think if I quadruple this recipe, it will fit in a Nordic Ware 13x18 half sheet high sided pan?

I made quadruple this recipe and it was very good. Everyone liked it. It was a little dry though. It didn't have the Creamy gooiness. I'm not sure why because I didn't put less liquid or cheese.

He started his career on the Vickers VC10, transferred to the 747 in '74, then a stint on the link BAC 1-11, and then eventually the Concorde in '94. Since he was link part of the Concorde's crew, he was able to link buy the Breitling.
