How To Make grandma's macaroni and cheese

Step 1

Cook macaroni as directed. Drain well. Layer pasta, spices,onion,cheese. Ending with the cheese on top. Make 2 layers.

Step 2

Fill milk to top of pan (Large casserole or 9x13"pan) that has been greased.Bake uncovered, unless it gets too brown for you (the crust is the best part!)
Step 3

Bake on cookie sheet to avoid drips. Bake 350'F for 1-2 hrs. Til milk is all evaporated except for the solids.(It should look a bit like cottage cheese) ****All the measurements are estimated. We,like many, cook by feel!****
