Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

16 oz uncooked elbow macaroni (or whole-wheat pasta for an added 3.5 g fiber per serving)
3 tbsp all-purpose flour
2 cups skim milk
1 tbsp light butter (stick or tub)
8 oz reduced-fat (33 percent) shredded cheddar
3 oz Velveeta Light cheese, cut into thin strips
1/8 tsp black pepper
3 tbsp seasoned breadcrumbs

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Boil macaroni until tender but firm. While pasta cooks, whisk together flour and 1/2 cup milk in a small bowl. Pour remaining 1 1/2 cups milk into a large saucepan and heat over low. Once milk is slightly warmed, turn heat to medium-low and add flour and milk mixture, stirring constantly until thick. Reduce heat slightly and add butter, cheeses, and pepper. Cook until smooth, about 5 minutes. Drain macaroni, then combine with cheese mixture, stirring thoroughly. Pour into a 13" x 9" baking dish. Sprinkle breadcrumbs lightly and evenly on top and bake 30 to 35 minutes. Serve immediately.

This recipe is a great base for mac and cheese. I like to add some different cheeses, such as cheddar and Gouda, to give it a more complex flavor.
