BostonSidewalks Recipe - Stovetop Macaroni and Cheese

There are times when I feel like having macaroni and cheese and don't feel like going through the bother of making a white sauce and melting cheese and adding it to macaroni and baking it. With this recipe there are several huge advantages. You can make only what you want to eat. It is a one pot meal. It only takes 5 minutes longer than cooking the pasta. It is the same every time. The kids will love it.

Basically you cook and drain the pasta, add it back to the pot, add some butter and milk and some cut up Velveeta cheese, and mix it all together. That's it, you're done. And you can use any shape pasta you want. So whether you are making it for 1 person or 10 people it is the same process.

The recipe below is based on 4 ounces of pasta (1/4 lb). You can multiply this recipe to make whatever amount you want for however many people you want. So if you are serving a crowd and want to make 1 lb of pasta, just multiply everything by 4.

And if you want it creamier, add more butter and/or milk, cheesier add more cheese, etc. It's that simple. Enjoy and let us know what you think and what you add to it to make it even better.
