Time 1h5m

Yield 7

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups uncooked elbow macaroni
4 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups milk
¼ onion, minced
salt and pepper to taste
¼ pound processed cheese food
¼ pound shredded Cheddar cheese
¼ pound shredded Swiss cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Prepare the elbow macaroni according to package directions.
  • Meanwhile, melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium high heat. Stir in the flour until a cream colored paste forms. Then pour in the milk and stir constantly until this comes to a hard boil, then stir for 1 more minute. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • When the macaroni is cooked, spread 1/2 of it into the bottom of a lightly greased 9x13-inch baking dish. Then layer 1/2 of the grated onion, 1/2 of the salt and pepper and 1/2 of each of the cheeses. Repeat this one more time: macaroni, onion, salt and pepper and cheeses, and then pour the reserved white sauce over all. Top off with small pats of butter to taste.
  • Cover and bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 45 minutes.
