Homemade Baked Macaroni and Cheese Recipe
I’ve made this for my daughter and husband many times. Everyone that tries it loves it and can’t get enough. Even the picky eaters will enjoy this dish!
- 1 whole box of Elbow Macaroni
- 1 Block of Cabot's Sharp (or Extra Sharp) Cheddar
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 12oz can of italian tomatoes, strained
- 2 large eggs
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees
- Cook the box of pasta and strain, do not run under cold water
- Layer pasta and cheese (cut from the block) in a large bowl that can be put into the oven. Ending with a layer of cheese.
- Mix the 2 eggs and tomatoes together then pour on top of pasta and cheese
- Bake at 350 degrees for an hour, or until the cheese, tomatoes and egg are crispy on top. Serve right from bowl and enjoy!

the cheese is an 8oz block
for the pasta, a 1 pound box makes quiet a lot.
This sounds great. What is the size of the Box of Elbow pasta? Saw 3 different box sizes last night and didn't know which one you referred to!
That sounds great. What is the weight of the block of cheese?
