Personal Notes:
I encountered this very easy mac and cheese recipe while judging a cooking contest in a Culinary Arts class in the high school where I taught. Other variations were delicious and more complex but I liked the simplicity of this dish. I have modified it by adding veggies, using Pepper Jack cheese, spicing it up with crushed red pepper, or adding a breadcrumb topping. The possibilities are endless. You can adjust the creaminess to your liking by decreasing the evaporated milk and/or cheeses.
