re: Looking for a macaroni and cheese recipe

Stay with me. I'm about to go a little non-FDB with my ingredients.

8 oz uncooked macaroni
1 egg
8 oz sour cream
8 oz Velvetta shredded cheese
16 oz cottage cheese

Cook the macaroni and cool. Once cooled, mix in the rest of the ingredients. Cover and cook for 45 minutes at 350. Remove cover. Cook for 10 more minutes.

My grandmother made this recipe growing up. It is the simplest and best mac and cheese I've ever had. I have tried it with good cheeses and it just isn't the same. You need the fake stuff to make it work.

ETA: A variation I do a lot is to boil the macaroni with a little bit of liquid crab boil, then add in crawfish tails and powder crab boil with the rest of the ingredients.
