Monday Munch!

well, i've been the absentee blogger, haven't i? man, it's been a rough couple of weeks around here. my husband may be losing his job and it's meant a whole slew of "talks."

i'm wiped.



but not too wiped to bring you a new toddler approved recipe!

MAC & CHEESE
it's nice to do a "real" mac and cheese instead of a box and this is really easy.

Ingredients
1 7 oz. package of macaroni

Salt and pepper
3 Cups sharp cheddar cheese, grated
Butter
3 Cups milk
1/2 Cup buttered fresh bread crumbs

INSTRUCTIONS
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees

2. Cook macaroni until done. Rinse in cold water and drain well.

3. Layer in casserole dish 1/3 macaroni, sprinkling lightly with salt and pepper and 1/3 of the chesse. Dot generously with butter. Repeat twice more. Cover with bread crumbs.

4. Bake uncovered for 1 1/2 hours.

5. ENJOY!

at the request of the lovely beth, i have put a link in the side bar to a .pdf file with all the recipe cards for the printing. just print off whichever ones you want and i'll add to it as the mondays come and go.

Oh Kate, I hope everything works out, sending hugs your way. I have been an absentee blogger too, much too much stuff going on.
I'll have to make this one night when Piers is out to satisfy my flour cravings!

Yay! Thank you for putting the archives in your side bar. I know. I'm just so lazy. See, it's a printer problem we have. I can never print them out when you post them and then later I want them.

I hope everything works out with your husband's job. I imagine things are pretty tense over there. Hope you guys are hanging in there and I'll be thinking of you.
