Baked Macaroni and Cheese with Stewed Tomatoes image

Boy, does this bring back memories! When I was in high school, they served this every Friday in the cafeteria. I guess they had to make sure we had our vegetables :) It sounds gross, but I couldn't wait until Fridays, the macaroni and tomatoes were so good together. To this day, almost 20 years later, whenever I have baked macaroni & cheese, I crave stewed tomatoes. With this recipe, I don't have to.

MOM'S BAKED TOMATO AND CHEESE MACARONI



Mom's Baked Tomato and Cheese Macaroni image

This is not your everyday mac & cheese. It always tasted best when Dad would stop in Pinconning MI on his way home from deer hunting each year to pick up a huge round of Pinconning cheese. Mom had 5 hungry kids sitting at the table waiting for this to come out of the oven!

Provided by ElaineAnn

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 1h

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 lb macaroni, I use Mueller's Ready-Cuts
1 small onion, diced
2 tablespoons butter
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can stewed tomatoes
3 cups cheese
1/4 cup water

Steps:

  • Note 1: If you can't find Ready-Cuts, use a small penne pasta or mostaccioli. Elbows don't have enough substance for this recipe.
  • Note 2: You may use stewed or diced tomatoes.
  • Note 3: I use a combination of Pinconning, Colby, and mild Cheddar cheese. You may use your favorite(s).
  • Boil macaroni in salted water, 3 minutes less than package directions. Drain. It will finish cooking in the oven.
  • Sauté onion in butter until soft and translucent. Add the can of tomatoes to the onions and let simmer over low heat for 5 minutes.
  • Cut cheese into small chunks and set aside.
  • Preheat oven to 350°.
  • Spray a 9X14" glass pan with non-stick cooking spray. Layer half the tomatoes and cheese in the pan. On top of this, layer 1/2 of the cooked, drained macaroni, then the remaining tomatoes, then the remaining macaroni, and top with the remaining cheese.
  • Pour 1/4 cup water over the top. Cover with foil.
  • Bake in the oven for 35 to 45 minutes. Remove from oven and let stand for 5 minutes before serving.

Tips for the Perfect Baked Mac and Cheese with Broiled Tomatoes:

  • Use a high-quality cheese blend for the best flavor. A combination of cheddar, Gruyère, and Parmesan is a classic choice.
  • Cook the macaroni al dente according to the package instructions. This will prevent it from becoming mushy in the casserole.
  • Make sure the cheese sauce is thick and creamy before adding it to the macaroni. If it's too thin, it will make the casserole runny.
  • Broil the tomatoes until they are slightly charred and softened. This will bring out their sweetness and flavor.
  • Top the casserole with breadcrumbs before baking. This will give it a golden brown crust.
  • Let the casserole cool for a few minutes before serving. This will help it set and make it easier to slice.

Conclusion:

Baked mac and cheese with broiled tomatoes is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The creamy cheese sauce, tender macaroni, and flavorful tomatoes make this casserole a hit with people of all ages. Whether you're serving it as a main course or a side dish, this recipe is sure to please everyone at your table.
