Creamy Macaroni 'n' Cheese image

A remade comfort dish. Easy to adjust to anyone's dietary needs. A teaspoon of cumin in the cheese mixture makes for a tangier mac and cheese if you want a different taste.

Time 55m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/3 cup finely chopped onion
3 1/2 cups cooked elbow macaroni
1 3/4 cups shredded low-fat cheddar cheese
2 teaspoons minced fresh parsley
1/2 cup fat-free evaporated milk
1 3/4 cups 2% fat cottage cheese
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper (fresh ground makes it really good)

Steps:

  • In a microwave-safe bowl, cover and microwave onion on high for 2 minutes or until tender; drain.
  • You could just caramelize the onions in a skillet on the stove top if you don't want to stink up the microwave.
  • Add the macaroni, cheddar cheese and parsley.
  • In a bowl mix the milk, cottage cheese, mustard, salt, and pepper.
  • Mix until it is well combined and somewhat smooth.
  • Stir into macaroni mixture.
  • Pour into a 1 1/2 quart casserole coated with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Bake, uncovered at 350°F for 20- 25 minutes or until lightly- browned.
  • Burnt cheese bits are good.

I followed the recipe exactly and the mac and cheese turned out really well. It was a little bland for my taste, so I added some extra salt and pepper.
