This is easily the best mac and cheese I've ever had the pleasure of eating way too much of. Great flavour, large amount of cheese. Best of all though? You can reheat this and it still comes out great! No dried up flaky cheese of shriveled noodles for you the next day!

Mac and cheese
16 oz dry pasta
sauce
½ cup butter
½ cup flour
4 cups milk
1 - 1 ½ tbsp whole grain mustard
Salt and pepper to taste
1.5 lbs cheese (1 lbs cheddar, ¼ lbs mozzarella, ¼ lbs gruyere)
¼ lbs mozzarella for topping
Preheat oven to 350
Shred cheddar and gruyere, cube mozzarella and set aside
Melt butter in a large pot and bring to a very light simmer
Add in flour and whisk until smooth
Add in milk ½ cup at a time whisking between each addition until completely smooth
Bring to a light simmer then remove from heat
Whisk in mustard then add cheddar and gruyere.
Whisk until completely smooth
Cook pasta to al dente
Pour pasta into greased casserole dish
Pour sauce over pasta and mix in mozzarella cubes, stir mixture together
Top with mozzarella
Bake for 20 minutes in oven, broil for 5 minutes if mozzarella hasn’t started browining
