Best No Bake Homemade Mac N Cheese Recipes
NO-BAKE MACARONI AND CHEESE
This lighter mac 'n cheese is as deliciously creamy as a traditional version; the perfect texture comes from the evaporated milk, reduced-fat cheddar and Neufchatel cheese. The secret ingredient -- which makes these creamy ingredients go a long way -- is cooked cauliflower blended into the sauce. You don't know it's there, but it adds value to your meal by stretching the sauce while sneaking in a serving of vegetables.

Steps:
- Whisk the egg, evaporated milk, mustard powder, cayenne, nutmeg, garlic, and salt and pepper to taste in a bowl; set aside.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the cauliflower until tender and almost falling apart, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon or sieve. Add the pasta to the same water and cook until al dente, about 10 minutes. Drain, reserving about 1/4 cup pasta water. Save the pot.
- Put the egg mixture and cheeses in the empty pot and cook over medium-low heat, whisking constantly, until the cheese melts and the sauce begins to thicken, about 6 minutes. Remove from the heat. Add the cauliflower and puree with an immersion blender until smooth and light. Stir in some of the reserved pasta water to adjust the creaminess of the sauce as needed. Add the pasta to the sauce and toss, season with salt and pepper. Serve, sprinkled with breadcrumbs if desired.

EASY NO-BOIL MACARONI & CHEESE
I found this recipe in a doctor's office. It is great for a week night meal as you don't need to boil the pasta first; instead, you just basically toss the ingredients together and then bake in the oven. I really enjoyed the dish when it came out of the oven, but I was less enthusiastic about the leftovers (yet I hate leftovers anyway.)

STOVETOP MACARONI AND CHEESE
When I was a girl, Mama used Texas longhorn cheese in this recipe. After it melted all over the macaroni, I loved to dig in and see how many strings of cheese would follow my spoonful. -Imogene Hutton, Brownwood, Texas
