Recipe - Marks Macaroni And Cheese

One half pound Uncooked tubular pasta
One half Stick butter
3 tablespoon Allpurpose flour
1 cup Milk
1 teaspoon Garlic powder
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
One half cup Grated sharp Cheddar
One half cup Grated Swiss cheese such as
Emmenthal or Gruyere

*Note: Choose pasta with a larger diameter so the sauce can get inside such
as rigatoni or penne. Cook the pasta until "al dente." In a saucepan over
low heat melt the butter. Stir in the flour until the butter is absorbed.
Add the milk slowly while continuing to stir. Stir in the garlic powder and
the mustard. Then add the two cheeses and stir until blended into a smooth
thick sauce. Put the cooked pasta into a buttered casserole and mix in the
sauce, ensuring that it entirely covers the pasta. Bake in a 400 degree
oven for about 15 minutes until brown and heated through. Put under the
broiler for a minute or so to make the top crispier if you like. Serve as a
side dish to grilled pork sausages or with strips of cured ham. This can be
zoomed up a bit with a dash of Tabasco added to the sauce, or sprinkle
crisp, crumbled bacon over the top as a garnish. Serves 4 as a side dish.

this 1117 97; doubled the recipe to make it a main course (served with
steamed broccoli florets). This was the best recipe for Mac & Cheese I've
ever had. Very cheesy.
