The evaporated milk is what really gives this dish the old Fashioned feel. As far as the milks you can replace the 1/2 and 1/2 with whole milk but do not skip the evaporated milk. The bag cheese has a coating on it that prevents it from melting correctly. The most important thing is to grate your own cheese. They both have a nice flavor and something special to this already wonderful dish. Two cheeses I love to throw in there are Smoked Gouda and Sharp White cheddar. If you don’t like Velveeta you can leave it out but it does provide a nice creamy texture. You can play around with the cheeses and try different combinations, in this case I used a very basic combo. So here is the thing about this recipe, it is very versatile and things can be swapped out to your taste. If you like this recipe check out my Southern Candied Sweet Potatoes.
This dish was a must at every holiday and even made appearances at BBQ ‘s, birthday parties, or just because it was Sunday LOL. This is made the old fashioned southern way and Mac & Cheese, it is pure comfort food. This is a treasured recipe passed from my grandmother, to my mother and then to me. It is rich and full of cheeses and is the perfect side dish for any occasion. This old fashioned macaroni and cheese is made from scratch just like my grandma used to make it.
