Larry's "Kid Approved" Macaroni and Cheese
Description
This makes a great side dish, but once the kids try it, it will become their main dish. The directions were made simple enough for a ten year old or a real beginner cook wanting to go beyond "Take Out" or "Boxed Dinners". Great for "Pot Luck Dinners" too.

1/4 cup margarine or butter.
1/4 cup flour.
2 cups milk.
8 oz Velveeta Cheese. NO SUBSTITUTE !
2 cups uncooked elbow macaroni.
Preparation
1. Put cold milk in a medium sauce pan. Using a whisk, mix in flour. Make sure completely mixed. Put on medium heat. Add margarine or butter and salt. Add small pieces of cheese, stirring constantly, until all cheese is melted and sauce has started to thicken. Remove from heat. Set aside.
2. Fill a large pot about 3/4 full of water. (You may add about 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to water, to keep it from boiling over or sticking). Add macaroni to boiling water and boil until macaroni is soft.
3. Carefully drain water and put macaroni in a oven proof casserole dish. Warm up the sauce again so it is fluid and add to macaroni. Stir until completely mixed. Before serving, heat covered in 300 degree oven for about 20 minutes. Re-stir and serve.
