The recipe is from "Mary Masters, My Great Recipes" cards I used to get in the mail every couple of months. I made it for my (then) future husband and it's the best baked macaroni and cheese either of us have ever tried. Our 2 sons loved it too! You can use other varieties of macaroni or cheese for a change of pace.
