Ingredients:  
Mom's Macaroni

20 (or more if you like) slices American Cheese (and other cheeses if you like to mix it up)
1 large pkg. of a small size Macaroni Noodles
6 cups half and half milk
1/2 stick Margarine
2 Tbsp. all purpose flour
salt to taste

Directions:
Directions:
Boil your macaroni noodles as directed. Adding a splash of oil to the water will help keep water from foaming up and boiling over. When noodles are finished cooking drain and pour into a 11 x 13 baking dish. While noodles are cooking prepare your sauce. In a large saucepan melt 1/2 stick margarine add approximately 2 Tbsp. of flour and stir till browned.. If it balls up I add a bit more margarine before adding milk. (Otherwise the milk mixture is lumpy.) Add a little milk at a time to your mixture stirring constantly. As milk heats, while stirring, add 1 or 2 slices of cheese at a time. When all of your cheese is melted into the milk pour over your noodles and stir. Bake until golden brown.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees
Large deep baking pan (larger than a 9x13
