Cheesy homemade gluten free macaroni and cheese.  My grandma’s old fashioned recipe converted to gluten free.  As a child this was an enjoyable technique to watch.  She would thinly slice the cheese and then delicately layer the cheese on the bottom and sides of the buttered casserole dish.  I loved watching her cook because she always did this with a beautiful smile on her face and humming a happy little tune.  Make some happy memories with your children and have them cook with you.  This will become one of your family’s favorite dishes.”

 

DIRECTIONS

1. Cook the noodles according to the packaging.
2. Preheat oven @ 375 degrees.
3. Cheese sauce:  Melt butter in a saucepan on medium heat.  Stir in flour and cook for 2 minutes.  Add milk and salt, cook until thickened, about 15 minutes.  Stir continuously.  Remove saucepan from heat and stir in 1/2 pound sliced cheese.
4. Butter the bottom and sides of a 13x9x2 casserole dish.  Line the bottom and sides with thinly sliced cheese.
5. Add noodles to casserole dish and then pour cheese sauce on top.  Layer thin slices of cheese on top and place in oven.  Cook for 25-30 minutes.
