I got this recipe for macaroni and cheese several years ago from the Gabby Gourmet, who use to do cooking segments on the local KUTV 2 News. Since then, this is the staple mac and cheese recipe in my house. You can always leave out the ham and mushrooms and just use it as a side dish. I think it tastes best when you use sharp cheddar cheese, but most of the time I only have mild cheddar in the house. So any cheddar works fine. The sauce is just too easy and tastes amazing.

Also, today I got to go film a segment for a contest that I entered. Hopefully, I can give more details soon.

Deluxe Macaroni and Cheese

1 (12 oz) package of macaroni pasta cooked and well drained, according to the package
2 cans of cream of mushroom soup
6 cups of shredded sharp cheddar cheese, or any other cheddar
1 ½ cup diced cooked ham
1 lb. fresh mushrooms, sliced and sauteed in butter (I leave this out cause no one like it)
1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

Combine soup and 6 cups of cheese in a saucepan. Heat this mixture until smooth and cheese is melted. In a 9x13 sprayed dish, layer half of cooked macaroni, the half of cheese sauce. Sprinkle with all of ham and sauteed mushrooms. Repeat the macaroni and sauce layers and end with remaining 1 cup cheese. Bake uncovered at 350 degrees until bubbly (at least 25 min). Serves 8.
