Macaroni combined with cheese makes a high-protein dish that very readily takes the place of meat and that may be served as the main dish in a dinner. If this combination is made into a loaf and baked well in an oblong bread pan, it may be turned out on a platter and cut into slices. In case a loaf is not desired, it may be baked in a baking dish and served directly from that. In either form, it is made more appetizing by the addition of a tomato sauce.
Sufficient to serve eight.
Ingredients
* 1/2 cup macaroni (inch lengths)
* 1 cup milk
* 1 cup bread crumbs
* 2 tablespoons chopped green peppers
* 1 tablespoon chopped onion
* 1 tablespoon chopped parsley
* 2 eggs
* 2 teaspoons salt
* 1/8 teaspoon pepper
* 1 cup grated cheese
* 1 tablespoon butter
Instructions
Cook the macaroni. When it is thoroughly soft, drain off the water and mix the macaroni with the milk, bread crumbs, green pepper, onion, parsley, well-beaten egg, salt, pepper, and grated cheese. Place in a baking dish, dot the top with butter, and bake in a moderate oven until the mixture is set. Serve with or without sauce, as desired.
