Spicy & Extra Cheesy Macaroni & Cheese

Today we are posting a great recipe for macaroni and cheese. This particular recipe uses two types of our cheese; BLACK WAXED X SHARP CHEDDAR, and JALAPENO CHEDDAR. If you do not want to make it spicy you may want to substitute our Muenster cheese or regular white sharp Cheddar for the Jalapeno Cheddar- they also make wonderful macaroni & cheese! However take our word the two cheeses in this particular recipe combine perfectly to make a spectacular dish!

1 POUND COOKED MACARONI ELBOWS

1 EGG

SALT & PEPPER TO TASTE

HALF A STICK OF BUTTER OR MARGARINE

YOUR FAVORITE HOT SAUCE TO TASTE (OPTIONAL)

DIRECTIONS:

1. COOK ELBOWS IN SALTED WATER
2. BEAT THE EGG AND BLEND IN THE MILK, SALT, & PEPPER AND SET IT ASIDE
