ONE-POT MAC 'N' CHEESE
This one-pot wonder has humble beginnings: just milk and macaroni. As the pasta cooks, the starch released helps thicken the milk to make the perfect base for a sauce. The cheeses and seasonings are stirred in at the very end, and everything comes together magically.

Steps:
- Put the milk and macaroni in a medium saucepan. Bring the milk to a boil over medium heat, stirring frequently to keep the macaroni from clumping, then cook, stirring frequently, until the macaroni is tender and the milk has thickened to the consistency of heavy cream, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove the saucepan from the heat, add the Cheddar, mozzarella, cream cheese, butter, mustard, cayenne, nutmeg and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and stir until smooth, thick and creamy. Serve hot. (The dish will thicken as it cools; thin it out with a little hot water if desired.)

[email protected]I wouldn't recommend this recipe. The mac n' cheese was bland and flavorless. It was also very dry, even though I added extra milk.
Samuel Montgomery
[email protected]This recipe is a disaster! The cheese sauce was curdled and the pasta was overcooked. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

[email protected]I'm not sure what went wrong, but my mac n' cheese turned out really watery. The cheese sauce didn't thicken up at all, and the pasta was mushy. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.
