wanted to try a mac and cheese variation i'd heard of on bones (yep, i'm sad) but i didn't have any mac. thus:
enough spaghetti for about two servings
shredded extra sharp cheddar cheese
butter (2-3T)
1 large egg
about half a cup of milk (any but skim)
1 tsp of salt
some cayenne
5-6 tbsp leeks, chopped, sauteed in butter
break spaghetti into pieces about an inch to an inch and a half long. cook until very al dente. drain. rinse.
grease pan. grease again. (deadly serious)
layer cheese, butter, pasta, leeks in muffin cups
beat together egg, milk, salt, cayenne
pour liquids in equal proportion over each muffin cup
bake at 350 until done
makes about 8 nests
recipe, less leeks, spaghetti, and muffin cups, adapted from http://www.macaronicheeserecipes.com/Southern-Macaroni-and-Cheese.htm
damn tasty if i do say so myself
