How to make macaroni and cheese:

Cook macaroni; drain and set aside. Heat oven to 350°. Heat butter in 3-quart saucepan over low heat until melted. Stir in flour, salt, peppers, mustard, Worcestershire and Tabasco sauces. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly until mixture is smooth and bubbly; remove from heat. Stir in milk. Heat to boiling, stirring constantly. Boil and stir 1 minute. Add cheese; cook, stirring occasionally, until melted. Stir in remaining macaroni gently. Pour into an ungreased 2-quart casserole. Bake, uncovered, for 20 to 25 minutes or until bubbly. Serves 6.

(I like to add leftover ham and some chopped red pepper for color and I usually top casserole with some shredded Monterey Jack jalapeno cheese for a little zip.)
