Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound Elbow Macaroni
  • 4 tablespoons Butter
  • 4 tablespoons All-Purpose Flour
  • 4 cups Low Fat Milk 2%
  • 2 teaspoons Spicy Brown Mustard
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Black Pepper
  • 8 ounces Cheddar Cheese mild, shredded
  • 8 ounces Sharp Cheddar Cheese shredded and divided
  • 4 Egg lightly scrambled

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spray a 9" x 13" inch casserole pan with cooking spray.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat and cook macaroni according to instructions on the box. Do not overcook. Drain well and keep warm.
  • In the same pot, melt the butter on medium heat and stir in the flour. Mix with a wire whisk and slowly add milk, mustard, salt and pepper.
  • Add both shredded cheeses but reserve 4 ounces for the top. Mix well until the cheese sauce is smooth. Remove from heat.
  • Add macaroni and mix well. Next mix in the beaten eggs.
  • Pour mixture into the casserole dish.
  • Bake until it's bubbling around the edges and cheese on top is starting to brown, about 35 minutes. Let sit for a few minutes before serving.
