Tips
The trick is to make sure that everything is still hot.
You can buy pre-shredded cheese, but once you use block cheese, you just don't go back.
You can stop after mixing the cheese and other ingredients with the noodles, but for a step further, add shredded cheese on top as well as smoked paprika and parsley and bake in the oven.
This is a no-roux recipe, and the only thing you have to use the stove for is to boil the noodles.
This mac and cheese is quick enough to make during the week.
The cheese will melt and become super creamy, you won't even have to make a cheese sauce.
