It was what I was raised on and I have tried different types, but always go back to Mama&#8217;s! \ud83d\ude42 It also happens to be a huge hit for anyone else that we make it for! Southerners take food to anyone that has been sick, had a baby, had someone pass away, or really just to say &#8220;Hey!&#8221;. This is a side that we always make.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>We also don&#8217;t measure out our ingredients so many of the recipes that I share are my best guess at the amounts we use.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4>Ingredients:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>-1 box of elbow macaroni &#8211; cooked<br>-salt and pepper to taste<br>-can of evaporated milk<br>-1 egg<br>-Tbsp of flour<br>-3-4 cups of cheese(we LOVE cheese so its more like 4)<br>-Milk(you can add as little or as much as you want to make it &#8220;runny&#8221; or not-we usually add 1\/3 or more)<br>-4-5 tablespoons on butter<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"400\" height=\"267\" src=\"https:\/\/uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/mac.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2649\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/mac.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/mac-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4>Instructions:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Mix the first 6 ingredients together(we mix it together in the pan we&#8217;re going to cook it in to save a bowl). Add in milk until it is the consistency you&#8217;d want(we usually do 1\/3-1\/2 cup). Separate the butter into tablespoon sized pats and place 4-5 on top of the mixed ingredients. Bake at 350 for about 30 minutes. We like ours &#8220;runny&#8221;, so if you like yours more &#8220;hard&#8221;, leave it in there a few more minutes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The problem with different versions of the same dish is that I&#8217;m usually going to&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2648,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[19],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2647"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2647"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2647\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2650,"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2647\/revisions\/2650"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2648"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2647"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2647"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2647"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
