Macaroni and Cheese

Marich's Note:

This is a simple mac and cheese recipe that never fails to please. Not too dry, just right. You can tweak it with cayenne or anything else to make it "your own". The only thing that's a must is Velveeta cheese.

On 10/15/10 I was looking for a Mac & Cheese recipe that used the items that were on hand. I came across this one and decided to try it. And I'm so glad I did :). Except for using a different pasta, the recipe was made as it was written.To get the " Golden Color " that I wanted, this was baked at 35 minutes.And who needs to add any " extras ", this was great as it was.Thank you for posting and, " Keep Smiling :) "
