Sometimes we want simple, we want to go back to sitting at Grandma’s table and eating deliciously creamy old fashioned macaroni and cheese. This recipe will become a new family favorite and only requires 5 simple pantry ingredients. What’s even better, even though this is an old fashioned recipe, it’s made with modern technology. All you need to create the best mac and cheese you have ever tasted is an Instantpot or multi cooker and 10 minutes.
Makes 4 servings
INGREDIENTS:
2 cups uncooked macaroni
2 cups vegetable broth
2/3 cup milk
4 oz. cream cheese
6 oz. medium cheddar, shredded
INSTRUCTIONS:
-Add the macaroni and vegetable broth to the multi cooker. Close the lid and cook on the “steam” setting for 3-5 minutes. Stir the pasta at least once during cooking. Close the lid promptly after stirring each time.
-After 3-5 minutes of cooking, the pasta should have absorbed all of the broth (if not, cook a few minutes longer until fully absorbed).
-Turn the multi cooker to the “keep warm” setting, and add the milk and cream cheese.Stir until the cream cheese has melted.
-Finally, add half of the shredded cheddar and stir until it has melted, then repeat with the second half. If the cheese sauce becomes too thick or dry for your liking, simply stir in an extra splash of milk or vegetable broth.
-Serve immediately.
ENJOY!
