This White Cheddar Mac and Cheese is our favorite! Is it so creamy. So cheesy. So delicious! This is comfort food at it's best!
Ingredients
- 1lb pasta shells or maceroni (cooked and drained)
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 5 tablespoons all purpose flour
- 3 1/2 cups whole milk
- 1 heaped tablespoon dijon mustard
- 12oz sharp white cheddar cheese (shredded or cubed)
- salt and pepper (to taste)
Directions
| Step 1 | |
| In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Whisk in flour to make a paste and cook for about a minute. Gradually add the milk, a little at a time, whisking the whole time to avoid any lumps.

This is a great, simple recipe! Definitely needs salt and pepper at the end, ans maybe less dijon next time. I will keep this in my file!
