Cheese Macaroni
A very rich and creamy version of macaroni and cheese. This can be made any time of the year. My whole family loves it.

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 (16 ounce) package elbow macaroni
9 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup shredded Muenster cheese
1/2 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
1/2 cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
1/2 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
1 1/2 cups half-and-half
8 ounces cubed processed cheese food
2 eggs, beaten
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper

DIRECTIONS
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until al dente; drain well and return to cooking pot.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt 8 tablespoons butter; stir into the macaroni.
In a large bowl, combine the Muenster cheese, mild and sharp Cheddar cheeses, and Monterey Jack cheese; mix well.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Add the half and half, 1 1/2 cups of cheese mixture, cubed processed cheese food, and eggs to macaroni; mix together and season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a lightly greased deep 2 1/2 quart casserole dish. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 cup of cheese mixture and 1 tablespoon of butter.
Bake in preheated oven for 35 minutes or until hot and bubbling around the edges; serve.

Every cook has one, but this is a link to the recipe for Delilah Winder's version; Oprah named it the best in America. I'd love to try it, but it's expensive (7 cheeses) and makes a HUGE batch!

I just put some cooked mac in melted butter in a large skillet, then pour some milk and add grated cheese. Stir until cheese melts. You can use any kind of cheese you want as long as you can grate it.

Um...I don't know what the soul food part is....but mac and cheese is a mornay sauce and macaroni noodles and then you can do what you want bake it with cheese on top or bread crumbs....I add broccoli :)
