Baked Macaroni and Cheese


This is a great Sunday night dinner. It is quick and simple. You will have most of the ingredients in your cabinet already. Enjoy! ~Ali

Ingredients:
1 pound dried elbow macaroni
¼ cup butter
¼ cup all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon granulated garlic
½ teaspoon granulated onion
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon pepper
2 cups milk
2 cups grated cheddar cheese
¾ cup dried bread crumbs

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Cook the macaroni as directed on the package. Drain. Transfer it to a greased 2-quart casserole dish. Set aside. In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter, then whisk in the flour, garlic, onion, salt and pepper. Gradually blend in the milk, stirring often. Cook and stir until the mixture thickens and bubbles. Stir in the cheese, and mix until smooth. Remove from the heat. Pour the cheese sauce over the macaroni and toss well. Sprinkle the top with the bread crumbs. Bake for 15 minutes, or until bubbly.

Makes 8 servings.
