My personal favorite thing to cook is baked macaroni and cheese. It's easy to make and I think it tastes delicious when it's reheated in the microwave the next day. Plus it's easy to make and filling. I use about a quarter pound or less of the following cheeses. American, cooper sharp and provolone. A box of any kind of noodles, I prefer elbow noodles but I'll use anything I have sitting around. A couple splashes of milk and a half stick of butter. I usually buy the cheese sliced thick and cut it up into little squares and mix it all in a bowl.
First I boil the water and cook the macaroni, I don't cook it until it's fully really soft because it cooks a little when you bake it.
Then I put a layer of macaroni on the bottom of either an aluminum pan or Pyrex. Followed by a generous layer of cheese. I repeat that step until I use all the macaroni.
I add the milk and butter and pop it in the oven at 350 degrees. When the cheese starts to melt I stir it every 5 minutes so the milk and the butter mix in.
I cook it for about 25-30 minutes, take it out and enjoy.
When reheating in the microwave I dampen a paper towel and cover the bowl, this insures the macaroni doesn't get crunchy.
