Jana’S Homemade Mac And Cheese

• 4 cups elbow pasta
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 2 tablespoons whole wheat flour
• 4 cups skim milk
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon onion flakes dried
• 4 cups sharp cheddar cheese grated
• 3 Italian breadcrumbs tbps

1. Preheat your oven to 350u0b0F.
2. In a large pot, cook pasta as directed until al dente. Drain, rinse, and set aside.
3. While the pasta is cooking, heat up the butter in a large saucepan*. As the butter melts, add the flour and whisk until a rue forms. Slowly stir in milk. Add paprika, black pepper, and onion flakes. Bring to a slight boil and let simmer for about 15 minutes, stirring frequently. Sauce should thicken a bit as it cooks.
4. Turn off the heat and add 3 cups of the grated cheese. Stir until cheese is about melted. Add the pasta to the milk and cheese sauce mix. Stir until the pasta is all covered; you should be able to hear the elbows filling up with liquid as your stir.** Once you've mixed the pasta and sauce, add the remaining cup of cheese and gently fold it in. Sprinkle the top of the mix with the breadcrumbs.
5. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, uncovered. Remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes before serving.
