16 ounces Cheddar cheese, grated (about 4 cups)
2 cups milk, evaporated milk or half & half
3 eggs

Macaroni Pie Recipe
Guest Author - Eileen Brown

Macaroni Pie is very popular in the Caribbean islands. It turns up at Sunday lunch, at parties and on holiday tables without fail. Most of the time macaroni pie is a very simple affair. But everybody's mama has "the best" recipe for macaroni pie and every one of those recipes is different.

Sometimes a bit of sautéed scallion, onion or garlic is added to deepen the flavor. Some versions include vegetables such as green bell peppers, peas, tomatoes, carrots and corn. Others are made more hearty with the addition of fish or smoked sausage. Putting in hot peppers, hot sauce or chutney makes for spicy macaroni pies. And I have seen macaroni pies seasoned with herbs and spices, or topped, before baking, with bread crumbs or even ketchup .

This recipe produces a very simple and delicious macaroni pie: macaroni, cheese, milk and eggs are the primary components. It is a basic recipe that can be dressed up in any number of ways, and I will leave it to you to create your own special versions, if you wish, from here.
