How To Make mac-n-cheese-n-crackers
-
Step 1In a large pot, cook macaroni according to manufacturers directions.
-
Step 2While macaroni is cooking, melt butter in a medium sauce pan over medium heat.
-
Step 3Add diced onion and cook till translucent/clear, being careful not to brown onion.
-
Step 4When onion is translucent/clear, remove from heat and add cracker crumbs and stir.
-
Step 5Reduce heat to low, return pan to stove, add milk and stir.
-
Step 6To cracker an milk mixture, add cheese that has been cut into small cubes (or you can shred it, allowing for faster melting).
-
Step 7Stir constantly (so that it does not burn) until cheese is thoroughly melted and incorporated in to a smooth mixture.
-
Step 8Remove macaroni from heat and drain. Do not rinse.
-
Step 9Carefully combine cheese mixture and macaroni together.
-
Step 10Serve 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.
-
Step 11Be prepared, you will never make macaroni and cheese any other way again!!!!
