30 Day Challenge - Day 21 — A favorite recipe

A couple weeks ago, I said one of my favorite foods was homemade macaroni and cheese so today, I will share with you the recipe!

½ cup of elbow macaroni
3 tablespoons of flour
3 tablespoons of butter
2 cups of milk
1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 cup minced onion (sometimes I add this, but usually I don't)

Dash of pepper

2 cups of cheddar cheese

Heat oven to 350º

Cook macaroni. While macaroni cooks melt together butter and flour and cook for a couple of minutes. Add milk and cook on medium heat until sauce thickens, stirring the whole time (so it doesn't burn on the bottom). When sauce thickens and coats the back of the spoon, add cheese, onion, salt and pepper and stir until melted.  Add sauce to cooked and drained macaroni, pour in to a baking dish and bake until bubbly - 45 min. - 1 hr. Then ENJOY!

Kraft Macaroni and Cheese this is not! It is MUCH better!!
