Georgia Macaroni With American Cheese

"This is a recipe that I got from one of my husband's Marine friend's Mother. She came up to Virginia to visit him, and she cooked everyone a Southern Feast! My husband fell in love with the macaroni and cheese, so I asked her for the recipe, and, here it is! NOTE: This recipe is really just made by feel. After reading the reviews I received I re-adjusted the amount of milk in the recipe. Feel free to add, or subtract the amounts of salt, pepper, cheese or milk! Enjoy!"

  1. I wanted an easy to make & good to. eat mac & American recipe. This one is definitely my choice to use. I love it. Thank you. ??
     
  2. This was easy to make and good to eat. I used 8 slices of white American cheese and it was just perfect.
     
  3. The recipe was simple and therefore decent. I had 6 slices of American Cheese which I needed to use up and therefore I looked up a recipe. I definitely needed 8, it wasn't cheesy enough. I would have given it 5 stars for an easy, kid friendly mac and cheese. Not one for an adult party. Too simple.
     
  4. Great quick recipe. Love that it wasn't too creamy. Thanks
     
  5. Do I put the evaporated milk in the cheese mix??

  1. You can also use 3 sharp cheddar, 3 pepper jack, and 1.5 Swiss, 1/4 cup milk and a splash of heavy cream. So good!!
