Submitted by vpearson23

"Super easy baked mac n cheese. This is my daughter's favorite mac n cheese dish and has been in my family since my mother was a little girl. When draining the tomatoes you may want to reserve some of the juice to add back in if desired."

 

• Ready In: 50mins
• Ingredients: 6
• Yields: 1 dish
• Serves: 8-10

ingredients

• 1 lb macaroni noodles
• 1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes
• 2 cups mild cheddar cheese
• 2 cups sharp cheddar cheese
• salt
• pepper

directions

1. Drain tomatoes until most of the juice has been removed. You may desire to reserve the juice in case you want to add some back in later.
2. Boil macaroni until Al dente and drain completely.
3. In large mixing bowl combine tomatoes, macaroni, and both types of cheese and transfer to 9 x 13 baking dish. Salt and pepper the top to taste.
4. Bake for roughly 30 minutes, until edges are bubbly and center is warm. My mother leaves it uncovered to get a crispy top but I like to cover it with foil so it all stays nice and soft.
