Directions
Baked Macaroni and Cheese with Stewed Tomatoes, Boy, does this bring back memories! When I was in high school, they served this every Friday in the cafeteria. I guess they had to make sure we had our vegetables : It sounds gross, but I couldn’t wait until Fridays, the macaroni and tomatoes were so good together. To this day, almost 20 years later, whenever I have baked macaroni & cheese, I crave stewed tomatoes. With this recipe, I don’t have to., Great Recipe! So good! It reminds me of a life-long favorite quick comfort-food meal of 2 cans Delmonte original stewed tomatoes pured and heated to a high simmer, with 1/4-1/2 lb. of diced Kraft Deluxe American Cheese slices stirred into it until thoroughly melted, poured over bowls of cooked & drained elbow macaroni., tasty recipe.. but i had to bake twice as long.. not quite sure what went wrong.. I only used 1 – 14 oz. can of tomatoes the recipe didn’t specify size or whether or not to drain so I guessed .. and didn’t drain.. also.. added 1 tsp of dry mustard.. all in all.. i’d make it again.. leftovers will be yummy lightly fried.. thx for sharing..
