Microwave Macaroni and Cheese Recipe

In a large pot with boiling salted water cook the elbow macaroni until al dente. Drain and set aside.

In a 2-quart microwave-safe covered casserole dish cook the onions and butter or margarine on high for 3 to 4 minutes.

Add the cooked and drained pasta milk and cubed cheese and stir. Cook for 11 to 12 minutes on high stirring well after 4 8 and 11 minutes. The mixture will still be runny at this stage. Add salt and pepper to taste.

Let stand for 5-8 minutes before serving. The sauce will thicken as it cools slightly.
