Quick and Easy Macaroni and Cheese #2

By carvalhohm

Ingredients

• 8 ounces large elbow macaroni, cooked
• 1 (8-ounce) package shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
• 1 (10-3/4-ounce) can cream of mushroom soup, undiluted
• 1/2 cup mayonnaise
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1/2 cup homemade soft, coarse bread crumbs, made from French bread, lightly toasted (see Notes)
• 1 tablespoon butter, melted

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Stir together first 5 ingredients in lightly greased broiler-proof 2-quart baking dish.

Bake 22 to 25 minutes, or until bubbly. Set oven to Broil. Stir together bread crumbs and butter; sprinkle over casserole. Broil 5-1/2" from heat for 45 seconds to 1 minute, or until lightly browned.

Notes:
To make homemade bread crumbs, process bread slices in food processor or blender. It takes about 2 slices of bread to make 1 cup of soft bread crumbs.

You can easily lighten up this recipe by substituting a few ingredients: Use reduced-fat sharp Cheddar cheese, reduced-fat cream of mushroom soup, light mayonnaise, and fat-free milk.
