How To Make mac-n-cheese-n-crackers

  • 1
    In a large pot, cook macaroni according to manufacturers directions.
  • 2
    While macaroni is cooking, melt butter in a medium sauce pan over medium heat.
  • 3
    Add diced onion and cook till translucent/clear, being careful not to brown onion.
  • 4
    When onion is translucent/clear, remove from heat and add cracker crumbs and stir.
  • 5
    Reduce heat to low, return pan to stove, add milk and stir.
  • 6
    To cracker an milk mixture, add cheese that has been cut into small cubes (or you can shred it, allowing for faster melting).
  • 7
    Stir constantly (so that it does not burn) until cheese is thoroughly melted and incorporated in to a smooth mixture.
  • 8
    Remove macaroni from heat and drain. Do not rinse.
  • 9
    Carefully combine cheese mixture and macaroni together.
  • 10
    Serve as is or, if you are like me and like a crunchy top, transfer the mixture to a buttered baking dish, top with more buttered, crushed, cracker crumbs and bake uncovered in a pre-heated 350 degree oven for 1/2 hour.

    Be prepared, you will never make macaroni and cheese any other way again!!!!
