DAD'S OVEN BAKED MACARONI AND CHEESE WITH A KICK
I grew up on this recipe - it was a family favourite and I now make it for my husband and children and they all love it, too. We like things spicy, so I've added cayenne powder to my version.

Steps:
- Cook and drain macaroni; rinse with cold water.
- Meanwhile, melt butter or margarine either in a pot on the stove or in a microwavable container in the microwave.
- Stir in flour.
- Add milk and cook, stirring frequently (5 - 6 minutes in the microwave, stirring every minute) until thickened.
- Add seasonings and continue cooking on stove or in microwave for 1 - 2 minutes longer.
- Add 1 1/2 cups cheese and stir until melted (may need to be cooked for 1 more minute to melt the cheese).
- Grease a large casserole dish and pour in macaroni noodles and cheese sauce, stirring to mix. My dad always layered the noodles and sauce, so that's an option, too.
- Sprinkle the breadcrumbs on top, followed by the remaining 1/2 cup cheese.
- Bake at 375 for 25 - 30 minutes, or until mixture is heated through and the cheese on top is completely melted.
