Jalapeno Mac & Cheese
Ingredients:
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 lb macaroni noodles
5 jalapenos, seeded and diced
3 cloves garlic, chopped
1 1/2 cups whole milk
8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
2 tablespoons onion powder
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
sea salt, to taste
crushed red pepper, to taste
Directions
Cook macaroni noodles until al dente. Drain and put back in the pot you boiled them in.
Meanwhile, heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the jalapenos and garlic, and cook until tender (about 5 minutes). Add jalapeno garlic mixture to the pasta.
Preheat the broiler.
In a small saucepan, combine milk, cream cheese, and onion powder over medium heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until smooth. Add to the pasta, stir in cheese, season with sea salt and crushed red pepper.
Place pasta in baking dish (I used a 9×9 glass one), and broil until browned. Watch carefully, as this will only take 3-5 minutes.
