This was so delicious, and I have made several macaroni and cheese recipes. I added chopped tomatoes and steamed broccoli before baking.

This recipe is very similar to a Weight Watchers macaroni and cheese recipe I used to make in the 1980's. I lost that recipe and have been looking ever since for a mac and cheese recipe that used the evaporated milk and egg and shredded cheese. This is delicious! My only suggestion is that for my taste, it needed a little salt before I ate it. Thanks, Chef 214039 for submitting this recipe.
