    Yeah, i would grate, actually i just went back to the original source, and from her piccies, she grated.. i think regular cheese would melt in a instant and not last the hour !!! Reason they are suggesting cheddar. TBH, this cheese (blue box) is just divine...i make a mashed potato bake with it all infused in the mashed potatoes, and whilst is nice and fattening...its so delicious.

    I'm making this today only I will be halving the recipe again (lots to feed!) and putting the macaroni in raw and cooking it for longer. I'll let you all know how it comes out

    Just remember to keep an eye on it as every SC cooks differently and you don't want the pasta to break down. Sounds great though! And as much as I am a food purist I do love a bit of Kraft Cheddar - shhhhh don't tell anyone

    I made it.

    Not sure how it is meant to come out, like whether it is meant to be gooey or not.

    I didn't cook my pasta first, and I didn't adjust the measurements like I was going to.

    It was a major hit in this house! My DS1 loved it. I will make it again only because it is just so easy & convenient to make. I just made sure I gave it a good stir every 1/2hr whilst it was first cooking. I also used the small San Remo macaroni which is probably why it cooked fine without needing to be pre-cooked.

    Thanks for sharing the recipe MBear

    I think there's a few of us having this for tea!

    Mine's a little different as I won't buy Kraft (if you don't know why - check out the Ethical and Aware Living threads) so I used a bit of cream cheese spread and put extra tasty in. Smells yummo!

    When it's cooked, I'll be putting them into rammekins and putting breadcrumbs, parsley and parmesan on top and baking off in the oven to finish. Mmmm...

    Will let you all know how it goes!
