Macaroni and cheese has become a Thanksgiving side necessity—and rightfully so! We asked Telly’s Grille & Catering to share their delicious Three Cheese Mac & Cheese recipe to add an extra cheesy taste to your Thanksgiving menu. Telly’s utilizes the Cambro High Heat H-Pan to make their Mac & Cheese, which simplifies the process by allowing them to prep, cook (up to 375°F) and store all in the same pan.

Items needed:

Ingredients:

  • 16 ounce package of macaroni pasta
  • 8 ounces of Sharp Cheddar Cheese, half cubed & half shredded
  • 8 ounces of Mild Cheddar Cheese, half cube & half shredded

Mornay Sauce:

  • 8 ounces of Extra Sharp White Cheddar, shredded
  • 2 tbs of unsalted butter
  • 2 tbs of all purpose flour
  • ¼ of a white onion, chopped
  • 4 cups of milk
  • Salt & pepper, to taste

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  2. In a medium sauce pan, melt butter down with chopped onions. Whisk in flour until it makes a light paste, but make sure not to brown.
  3. Slowly add milk, whisking constantly. Add shredded cheeses to sauce, always whisking so that you don’t create clumps.
  4. Reduce the heat to a simmer so the sauce can thicken. Add salt and pepper to taste and remove from heat after 10 minutes.
  5. Boil macaroni pasta as it says on the directions of your package.
  6. Drain and then combine pasta, Mornay sauce and cubed cheeses in a deep baking dish or pan. For this, we used one of our Cambro High Heat H-Pan (which are safe to use in ovens up to 375°F).
  7. Sprinkle shredded cheese on top and place in the oven for 20 minutes or until the cheese on top is melted and beginning to brown.
  8. Enjoy!
