    8oz evaporated milk
    1/2 C Muenster cheese
    1/2 C sour cream
    3 whole eggs beaten
    2 C or a whole 8oz bag of shredded sharp cheddar
    2 cups whole milk

    3/4 cup heavy cream or evaporated milk
    1 teaspoon salt
    3/4 teaspoon black pepper
    3/4 teaspoon mustard powder
    1 1/2 cups (6 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese
    8 slices American cheese
    pinch optional cayenne pepper... Directions
    In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the macaroni according to the package directions. Drain well and return the pasta to the pot. Add the butter and stir over medium heat until the butter has melted and the pasta is coated.
    In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, cream, salt, black pepper, mustard powder and cayenne pepper, if using. Pour the egg and cream mixture into the pot and stir. Add the cheeses and continue stirring over medium heat until the sauce has thickened and is very creamy, about 3 minutes. Serve hot.

    @mygirldarby 4 года назад +82

    That's a good tip about the al dente pasta. Maybe traditionally they cook the pasta to al dente so that the pasta sauce (like spaghetti or Alfredo sauce) will get absorbed into the noodles. It makes sense after Paula explained that if you undercook these noodles, the dish will be dry because the noodles will take in all the cheese sauce. I'm learning so much from watching Paula cook!

Mix ingredients and stir and youre done. Says nothing of baking. I assume Paula combined two recipes.

      Louis82 grits are made from hominy (corn kernels) and is ground coarsely. Boil or cook them about 20 minutes. Add salt and butter and they are very thick,creamy and buttery. Also can milk makes creamy. Meatloaf? Well many ways to make it but basically it’s ground beef , some add sausage to the mix , egg, bread crumbs,onions, green peppers etc, mixed together with tomato sauce, or ketchup and thrown into a bread loaf pan and baked. It’s served sliced. Many ways to make a meatloaf it’s really all in the cooks desire and provisions on hand. It’s quick , inexpensive, and served on a lot delicious f tables in the south where I’m from.

      @kcso71 4 года назад +12

      Here's a little tip for very flavorful grits..
      In your saucepan, melt a couple tblsp of butter and add your grits. Stir constantly until toasted.. you can smell the toasted corn and they will start to turn color..add water and salt.. stir well and bring to a boil, reduce heat to low.. cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, until done.
      Here in South Carolina, we eat grits with just about everything!! If you want a change of pace, add a dollup of sour cream along with your butter.. cream cheese is good, diced tomatoes and shredded cheese, diced bacon,.. oh my.. and of course shrimp, ham and sausage!! The possibilities are endless!!!

I love her down to Earthness, humor and zest for life.

    This is the way my mom taught me how to make southern mac n cheese. However, she left out one important detail. DO NOT stir in the eggs until you have poured in your milk (noodles need to cool down or you will have scrambled eggs I know from trying to teach a house mate and her mac n cheese was ruined). I don't use pre shredded cheese it has a coating on it that keeps it from sticking together in the package. ALWAYS buy a block of cheese and grate it yourself there is a significant difference. Other than that she did the Ole Southern Mac N Cheese justice. ENJOY!

    That looks great...but you can take it to another level, just by smashing up real fine, about 1 1/2 sleeves of Ritz crackers tossed w/ a stick or so of melted butter...then spread that over the top of that cheese. Let it get all brown & crispy w/ the cheese bubbling up through the cracks.
    If you're calorie counting...just be sure to use 100% pure, low fat butter.

    She's right, the evaporated milk makes a big difference in taste which is so good. The sour cream helps to make it creamy too. This is exactly like I make mine but I do add just a little black pepper.

To make it a fair exchange I’ll even give you my recipe for sweet tea. Use local honey (if you have it or if you can get it), raw honey is the best if you can get your hands on it. Take the honey and make it into a simple syrup by whisking it in a sauce pan on low heat using a one to one ratio, once you got the syrup mix it with your favorite brand of tea. Personally I like it with vanilla chai tea.

I am glad that Paula has kept her career going, I believe everyone makes mistakes. However, the Food Network didn't have a choice but to part ways with her, it was something she brought on herself. Just my point of view from someone who still does watch and enjoy Food Network.

      @@hootowlholler3760 Oh ok I see you are someone who believes everything you read on the Internet. The Bobby/Giada rumor was just that. And even if something did go on, that is absolutely NOT a reason to fire someone. Nor is Ree's teenage daughter drinking underage. Spare me the holier than thou rhetoric. Using racial slurs IS a reason for termination. Paula admitted it and apologized, which I give her credit for. Like I said, when the story came out, she left the network no choice. It goes with being a public figure and she was a reflection on the network. Their choice was not to be associated with it in these times. I believe in second chances, that is why I said I wished her and her career well. It's a shame that you don't get that even if something happened 30 years ago it STILL matters, words matter. The fact that you can't admit she did anything wrong is sad because she herself did.

Anyways, you obviously don’t know your American history. If you did, you would know that in the south, Prejudice was and still is openly practiced and ACCEPTED. Just because someone apologized for a racist comment, AFTER they got publicly humiliated doesn’t mean they have true remorse. If a person was born and raised in the south, having that racist mentality instilled in them from birth. Makes sense that person would have that negativity towards people of color. The fact that you AREN’T a minority, should be reason enough for you to keep your mouth shut on topics that are so sensitive!!!
