This is also a very simple macaroni and cheese recipe without eggs, evaporated or sour cream, but its very delicious and easy to prepare too with simple ingredients. You may add more cheese to your liking if needed.

Mac and cheese do have a tendency to thicken if you keep it for a long time, but you can always add a little milk or cream to slightly thin it down (and microwave for few seconds) as needed for later uses.

Homemade food is always the best but if you wish you can buy mac and cheese online too.

The basic ingredients you need to make mac and cheese are the pasta, butter, flour, milk and cheese along with few seasonings of your liking, and of course a little salt and little water needed to cook the pasta.

Some mac and cheese recipes call for ingredients like eggs, which is good to add, however, this is a very simple and easy stove top mac and cheese recipe without eggs and without evaporated milk.

We use whole milk and a little heavy cream to make this mac and cheese more rich and creamy, but you may skip the heavy cream if you do not have it.

I used shredded cheddar cheese in this easy one pot mac and cheese recipe, you can also use a combination of cheddar and Colby jack cheese if you wish, to add even more flavor.

If you do not have Colby jack cheese, you may also add few slices (about 2 to 3) of Kraft American singles which will add more flavor and the light yellow color to the mac and cheese if you wish to add more flavor and color.

Usually a roux is made with flour and melted butter in the beginning of making the sauce for mac and cheese.

However I made this one pot mac and cheese in a different way (I tried making the roux in the beginning but this method gave me more creamier and delicious mac and cheese) by stirring in the flour milk mixture later and I liked the results better for this one pot mac and cheese.

When I added the flour in the beginning to make one pot mac and cheese, I have noticed that the pasta took more time to cook and also it made everything more thicker, but this time when I added the flour milk mixture later (after the pasta is cooked) it helped reduce the cooking time and also it didn’t make the sauce too thick but just enough thick and creamy to make the mac and cheese delicious.

So here is how you can make this easy one pot mac and cheese without eggs or evaporated milk, following this easy mac and cheese recipe on stove top.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups elbow shaped pasta
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 American cheese slices I recommend Kraft American singles (optional)
  • 2 cups chilled milk (may need more)
  • ¼ cup heavy cream

To make the flour mixture

  • 1 teaspoon all purpose flour or cornstarch
  • ¼ cup milk needed to make flour mixture

Seasonings used

  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon mustard powder

Instructions

  • Mix ¼ cup of milk and cornstarch (or all purpose flour) without any lumps, keep this flour milk mixture aside.
  • Add the pasta, water, one cup of whole milk and butter to a saucepan, stir well and bring the mixture to a boil (stir often).
  • As the mixture starts boiling, reduce the heat to medium, and add the spice powders - garlic powder, onion powder and mustard powder and cook for 3 to 4 minutes or until the pasta is cooked. Keep stirring continuously to avoid the pasta from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
  • Add the flour milk mixture also to the pan and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Switch off the stove and keep the pan away from heat. Stir in the heavy cream and cheese (shredded cheddar or Colby if you are using and also the American cheese if using) and stir well everything so the cream and cheese will blend nicely with the hot pasta in sauce.
  • The mac and cheese will have a tendency to thicken quickly, so add the chilled milk, one cup at a time, and stir well so as to maintain the right consistency. If the pasta thickens again in few minutes (which is normal), add more chilled milk, little by little as needed, and stir well. In case you need to save the pasta for later use, you may add a little more warm milk (if the pasta is already at room temperature or cold)and stir well to reduce the thickness of the dish, if needed.

Notes

As we already discussed, the mac and cheese will thicken with time, so always serve it immediately for the best results though you may reheat it in the microwave after adding a little milk for later use if necessary.
If the mac and cheese is hot, add chilled milk to maintain the right consistency and if the mac and cheese is cold or at room temperature you can add little warm milk or add milk and microwave for a few seconds and stir well before using.
Adjust the seasonings according to your preference. You may just use garlic powder or onion powder if you wish, and you may even use ¼ teaspoon of turmeric powder if you want to add more natural yellow color to your mac and cheese and turmeric powder also comes with more health benefits. You may also add seasonings like white pepper, paprika etc if you like.
You may adjust the amount of cheese to your liking and if you wish, you can always add more cheese. As I mentioned in the recipe, I usually use shredded cheddar, but using Colby jack cheese or adding a few slices of American cheese slices adds extra flavor and make it creamy along with making more colorful by adding a little natural yellow color to the homemade mac and cheese.
