Mexican Mac And Cheese A La Doug

There is very great delight the Christian enjoys in the sight he has of the glory and excellency of God. How many arts and contrivances have men to delight the eye of the body. Men take delight in the beholding of great cities, splendid buildings and stately palaces. And what delight is often taken in the beholding of a beautiful face. May we not well conclude that great delights may also be taken in pleasing the eye of the mind in seeing the most beautiful, the most glorious, the most wonderful Being in the world.

INSTRUCTIONS

I have this old, 1962(MAN, that's OLD)Mexican recipe book, and I
thought to myself...wonder wots in there that I can manipulate????and
I found mexican macaroni dish...AHA, you did not think that the
Mexicans did crap dinner, right? Wrong! I found this marvellous mac &
cheese & jalapeno dish, that from now on, will be a stock in trade,  so
to speak in my kitchen. Of course I had to change it somewhat,  that
being my nature, so here it is....Mexican Mac & Cheese a la Doug!  Cook
macaroni, drain, and toss with the marg or butter. Mix egg well  with
the milk, add salt & pepper, and simmer onion and the peppers  until
transparent, add enough flour to make a roux, and add the milk  and egg
until a sauce forms, mixing constantly, then add the  cheese....in
other words, make a cheese sauce! Taste this, and if it  is not hot to
your liking, add some of Jim's smoked hab powder, until  it is, then
mix the sauce with the macaroni, put in the oven at 350 F  for about 30
minutes, then sprinkle paparika over all, and let it go  for another 20
minutes, remove it and let it rest. Note, if you wish  to cover with
bread crumbx before the cheese or after, go for  it....be flexible in
your cooking, it is more fun! Serve the above,  with the other above!
If you can figure all that out! Have fun and  enjoy the chile-head
list...Dont get onto one subject and kick it to  death, please.
