BAKED MACARONI AND CHEESE WITH STEWED TOMATOES



Baked Macaroni and Cheese with Stewed Tomatoes image

Boy, does this bring back memories! When I was in high school, they served this every Friday in the cafeteria. I guess they had to make sure we had our vegetables :) It sounds gross, but I couldn't wait until Fridays, the macaroni and tomatoes were so good together. To this day, almost 20 years later, whenever I have baked macaroni & cheese, I crave stewed tomatoes. With this recipe, I don't have to.

TOMATO SOUP MAC AND CHEESE



Tomato Soup Mac and Cheese image

This is the mac and cheese of my childhood with a few upgrades from how my mom made it. The tangy pop from the tomatoes lets the rich blend of cheeses really shine and the crunchy topping adds great texture. There's room in my world for a variety of mac and cheese styles and this one nears the top.

Provided by Dan Langan

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature, plus more for the baking dish
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 pound small or medium shell pasta (or your favorite shaped pasta!)
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
One 10.75-ounce can condensed tomato soup
1 1/4 cups milk
8 ounces sharp Cheddar, freshly grated
4 ounces sharp American deli cheese, torn into large pieces
1/3 cup panko breadcrumbs, seasoned or unseasoned
1/4 cup grated Parmesan

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F and grease a 9-inch square (or 2-quart) baking dish with butter.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and add the pasta. Cook the pasta until is al dente, about 2 minutes less than the package directions, and drain.
  • Meanwhile, melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat until foaming. Whisk in the flour, onion powder, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper and cook for about 30 seconds.
  • Whisk in the condensed tomato soup and milk and bring to a simmer, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Remove from the heat, then stir in the Cheddar and American cheese with a wooden spoon. Taste for seasoning and adjust if needed.
  • Stir the cooked pasta into the sauce and pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish pan. In a small bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, Parmesan and remaining 1 tablespoon of butter with your hand, then sprinkle over the pasta.
  • Bake until the top is golden and the edges are bubbling, 30 to 35 minutes. Let cool 5 to 10 minutes before serving.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the macaroni and cheese will be. Use fresh tomatoes, shredded cheese, and macaroni noodles that you like.
  • Cook the macaroni al dente: This means that the macaroni should be cooked until it is tender but still has a slight bite to it. Overcooked macaroni will be mushy and unpleasant.
  • Make a roux: A roux is a mixture of butter and flour that is used to thicken the cheese sauce. It helps to create a smooth and creamy sauce.
  • Use a variety of cheeses: Using a blend of cheeses, such as cheddar, mozzarella, and Parmesan, will give the macaroni and cheese a more complex flavor.
  • Add some extras: You can add other ingredients to your macaroni and cheese to make it even more delicious. Some popular additions include cooked bacon, diced ham, or peas.

Conclusion:

Macaroni and cheese with tomatoes is a delicious and comforting dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple tips, you can make the best macaroni and cheese with tomatoes that you have ever tasted.
