Category   Entrees - Maindishes
Sub Category   None
Servings   2

Ingredients
4 oz. elbow macaroni
1/2 tsp salt
4 strips bacon
1 small onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
6 oz. cheddar cheese, shredded
3 oz. cream cheese
2 Tbsp butter
2 Tbsp flour
 
1 1/2 cups milk
2 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp pepper
1/4 tsp salt

Instructions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees Bring 2 qts of water to boil and add salt (this is for cooking noodles) In medium sauce pan cook bacon over medium heat until crisp and then chop up into pieces Pour all but 1 tablespoon of fat out of pan and brown onions Add garlic at the end for about 1 minute Leave a little bit of a crunch to the onions as they will soften once baked in the oven
Cheese Sauce In 2 quart saucepan or Dutch oven, melt the butter over a low heat Whisk in the flour after butter melts and cook for 5 minutes or until it turns a straw like color Slowly add milk while mixing to keep the sauce from getting lumps Cook for 5-6 mins until it starts to bubble and thicken Stir in cream cheese until thoroughly mixed Next, stir in 4 oz cheddar cheese and seasonings; Turn off heat once mixed in
Pour in macaroni half way through making the sauce so it will be ready when sauce is done Boil macaroni for about 2/3 the recommended time so it is still slightly chewy (we did 6 minutes) The macaroni will soften up while it bakes in the oven Drain the noodles and combine them with cheese sauce, onions and bacon and mix thoroughly Pour mixture into 2 quart oven safe dish or individual baking dishes Sprinkle with shredded cheese and paprika Bake in oven for 20 minutes or until top layer of cheese has browned
