Creamy Mac and
Cheese
1 (16
oz.) Box Whole Wheat Macaroni
2 Tablespoons Fat Free Margarine
3/4 Cup Chopped Onion
2 Tablespoons Flour
2 (14 oz.) Cans Fat Free Chicken Broth
1 (10 oz.) Can Campbell's Cheddar Cheese Soup, undiluted
8 oz. Velveeta Light Cheese, cubed
1 teaspoon Dry Mustard Powder
1 teaspoon Pepper
Salt to taste (optional)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cook macaroni according to package
directions. Drain, but do not rinse; set aside. In a medium pot,
combine the margarine and onions. Cook over medium low heat until
the onions are tender. Whisk in the flour, then whisk in the chicken
broth, soup, Velveeta, mustard powder and pepper. Cook until the
Velveeta has melted and the mixture is creamy. Spray a 9X13 cake pan
with non-stick cooking spray (Don't use a regular casserole dish
because it will overflow unless it has high sides). Combine the
cooked macaroni and cheese sauce, and then pour into the prepared
pan. Bake for 35-40 minutes or until thick and bubbly, stirring half
way through the baking time. Let stand for 5 minutes before
serving.
Note:
This isn't a real orange macaroni and cheese if you're use to the
stuff out of a box. It's actually more of a tan color. If you don't
want to make so much macaroni and cheese at once, you can cut the
recipe in half and just bake it in a smaller pan. The recipe I got
this from was actually for half, but I didn't want a half of can of
cheese soup left over. I haven't tried it, but you should be able to
freeze individual portions of this for later.
