Make a popular home-cooked dish called mac 'n' cheese—it's pasta casserole with a thick, cheesy sauce. For the sauce, you'll only need milk, eggs, and grated cheese. Sharp yellow cheddar adds a rich flavor to the creamy casserole. Mix the cooked macaroni with butter, pour in the milk-egg cream, and mix with the cheese. Bake until the "cream" sets. A perfect dish to whet your appetite, celebrate Easter in a good mood!
