Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1/2 pound of your favorite short pasta, whatever's in your pantry
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 can (14 oz) evaporated milk
- 3 eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 8 ounces shredded cheese such as cheddar and/or Monterrey Jack
- 1 ounce shredded parmesan
Instructions
- Put a large pot of water on to boil. Once your water is boiling add a teaspoon of salt and your pasta. Cook for 6 minutes and drain. Pasta will be al dente.
- In the meantime, preheat your oven to 475 F (250 C) and lightly spray a 2 quart casserole dish with non-stick spray.
- In a small skillet over medium heat, melt butter and saute garlic for about a minute. It will brown lightly and become fragrant. Garlic burns quickly, so don't walk away.
- Add the garlic and butter, evaporated milk, eggs, and seasonings to a large mixing bowl. Whisk until everything's combined. Stir in cheeses.
- Add your drained pasta to the cheese mixture and stir everything together. Transfer the mac and cheese to your baking dish and bake for about 12-15 minutes or until it starts to become brown and bubbly around the edge. The cooking time can vary depending on the depth of your baking pan.
- Allow to cool for ten minutes before eating so you won't burn yourself on molten cheese. Dig in and enjoy!
