Slightly Cheesy Mac and Meat

Cook the macaroni a few minutes short of package instructions, rinse and place in a large bowl.

Brown the minced beef, and once browned, drain the grease and place the meat into the bowl with maraconi.

In the same pan you used for the minced beef, saute the onion until translucent, place in bowl with macaroni and beef, mix well. Add the grated cheese and mix well.

You can use any cheese you like, I try to find low-sodium ones, but any will do if you’re not watching your sodium intake.

In a separate bowl, mix the eggs, cream, stock and pepper, then pour into other ingredients and mix well. You can alter the spices, curry powder works great.

Grease an 8″ by 10″ oven dish and pour the mixture in and cook in a 400F oven for 30 minutes or until bubbly and slightly brown on top.

You can certainly add more cheese (and calories!) and use salt to taste. My guilty pleasure is to have this with ketchup…or pickled beets or cukes.

Serves 4 very generous portions.
