Mac and Cheese

first-mac-and-cheese-600-x-400.jpg    I took this recipe from The Lady and Sons Savannah Country Cookbook. I ate this at Paula’s restaurant while I was in Savannah, and immediately knew that I had to get the recipe. I lucked out when I bought one of her signed books, as it had this recipe. It’s quite cheesy and quite tasty.

  • 4 cups cooked elbow macaroni, drained (approximately 2 cups uncooked)
  • 2 cups grated cheddar cheese (I just put in a whole bag of pre shredded)
  • 3 eggs, beaten
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) butter, cut into pieces
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. After macaroni has been boiled and drained, add cheddar cheese while macaroni is still hot. Combine remaining ingredients and add to macaroni mixture. Pour into casserole dish and bake for 30-45 minutes. Top with additional cheese if desired.

*serves 6-8

    Yum! That mac and cheese looks SOOOOO good! Yesterday after looking thru my “Taste of Home” cookbook my G-ma got me for Xmas (it has like, 1200 recipes!)… I decided I would attempt making a sweet yeast bread recipe… it’s a coffee cake… it has a cream cheese filling with raspberry jam (but I used strawberry, because I had some in the fridge)… it turned out SOOOOO good…! I highly recommend that cookbook (Here’s the link…http://www.shoptasteofhome.com/taste-of-home-cookbook/37348,default,pd.html&cgid=CBK%20BDR) It’s like, $30, but SO worth it!!! I’ll put the recipe on my blog… I’m about to update in a few minutes here… :)

    I am going to try this, sometime in the very near future. The only ingredient I can see adding is breadcrumbs on the top layer for a couple mins in the broiler. Mmm.
