This Easy Stove Top Macaroni Cheese is pure mac and cheese heaven! An easy way to do macaroni and cheese when there is little time until dinner.
No baking required.
This is a classic recipe and not to be confused with a boxed mix or that made with Velveeta. Velveeta isn’t even classified as real cheese (and I still love it!).
So good, and so much better than boxed.
The key to this recipe, as with any sauce or gravy, is to stay with it- no walking away from the stove.
