Momma's Macaroni and Cheese Casserole
One box of cheap Mac & Cheese with "powdered" cheese sauce.
Two eggs
One cup of milk
Half a stick of butter
1 block of sharp/extra sharp cheddar cheese (about 2 cups grated)
salt and pepper.

Cook the macaroni for about 5 minutes over a rolling boil. Drain and rinse with cold water.

Spread a layer of macaroni in a 9x9" baking dish. Spread a thin layer of grated cheese. Spread another layer of macaroni. Spread a thin layer of grated cheese. Repeat once more or until all is gone.

Mix 1 cup of milk with 2 eggs. Beat until blended. Spread powdered cheese sauce over layers of macaroni and cheese. Pour egg/milk mixture into casserole. Be sure to cover all the layers. It should be somewhat soupy. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Apply generous pats of butter over the surface.

Bake at 350 for 30 minutes. Allow to cool for 15 before serving. Feeds me.
