1/2 pound elbow macaroni
1/4 cup thinly-sliced prosciutto - (2 oz)
1 cup heavy cream
2 cups milk
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Salt to taste

  • Season the sauce well. Don't be afraid to add salt, pepper, and other spices to the sauce. This will help to bring out the flavor of the cheese.
  • Add mix-ins. Macaroni and cheese is a great dish to customize. You can add cooked vegetables, meat, or seafood to the sauce. You can also top the macaroni and cheese with breadcrumbs or grated Parmesan cheese before baking.
