Before we get started with this next recipe, y'all, I want you to just look at these beautiful tulips
0:09
That's the most I've ever seen one open, Eddie. Aren't they beautiful
0:17
You know what this looks like to me? Looks like Easter. Reminds me of Easter, the purples and the pinks and the greens
0:26
And Easter's coming early this year, too, y'all. great time of day
0:30
The thought about making 11 Easter baskets wants to send me over
0:36
the edge a little bit. Especially when three or four of them can have no candy
0:44
in them. We have to, Eddie and I have to be very ingenious
0:50
when it comes to putting those baskets together. Alright, so y'all, just when you
0:54
think that you have heard every macaroni and cheese recipe in the whole entire world. I'm going to spring a new one on you that was in this latest issue of
1:04
Cooking with Paula Deen magazine, and it's going to be a macaroni and cheese pie. So you're going
1:11
to have your macaroni and cheese and your bread, and you're going to have some meat because we're
1:17
going to put a little bacon in it. So we've got almost all the food groups in it. Plus, excuse me
1:24
I'm about to get the hiccups. Plus, we're going to have tomatoes in it
1:28
So, very well-rounded. And children do love macaroni and cheese
1:38
Most children do. Like chicken fingers and macaroni and cheese. I've never seen a kid that would eat that
1:45
All right, so we're going to start by melting our butter in a little saucepan
1:52
All right, our butter is melted. All right, now I'm slowly going to add the milk
2:02
So we're just making like a custard. Macaroni and cheese custard. All right
2:16
We going to let that thicken for a second And I going to add our salt and our pepper and just give that a second to tighten
2:30
Our custard is nice and thick and now I'm going to take just a little bit and I'm going to do what you call tempering the egg
2:41
because we don't want to just pour it into that hot custard because then we'll have scrambled eggs
2:49
And we don't want scrambled eggs in our custard. I'm going to add a little bit more
3:11
Okay, that looks good. Good, good, good. I'm going to put it back in here
3:27
And let that cook for a couple of more minutes. Ooh, it looks so good
3:33
And then I'm going to add my provolone and my cheddar cheese
3:41
Let's see. I think I need to save a little for the top, don't I? Mmm. Look how good that looks, y'all
3:54
All right. So I've got... I've got my cracker crumbs
4:07
My cheese. and my fourth of a cup of bacon. I'm just going to toss this all in
4:23
Wow, looking good. Whoops. All right, so I'm going to pour this into our pie crust
4:38
Thank you and this is a great recipe for
4:57
just adding your macaroni to it and putting it in the oven
5:03
and top it with a little more cheese and just go like that okie dokie
5:09
you know what I forgot y'all I forgot to add the macaroni goofy
5:17
I'm goofy today it's a good thing I looked over there isn't it
5:24
it would have been much easier to add the macaroni while it was in the pot y'all
5:33
and that's one cup of raw macaroni uncooked and it will produce two cups
5:50
of cooked macaroni so now i'm just going to top it with our cracker crumbs
6:05
our bacon, a little bit more cheese. Love it
6:23
Love it, love it, love it. This would be nice to take to
6:27
covered dish supper. So I've got like three slices of tomatoes that I've cut in half and I'm just going to kind of do
6:37
a pinwheel on it. Isn't that pretty? Pretty, pretty, pretty
6:51
And I'm going to top it with some green onions. Spring onions is what we call them Our macaroni and cheese pie is beautiful y So all I going to do is just put a little coarse ground pepper Just kind of like color
7:13
Just adds another little layer of something. So in the oven, about 20 minutes on 350
7:24
Yum, who's ready for pie, pie, pie. So our macaroni and cheese pie looks pretty good, doesn't it, y'all
7:33
So this may be a big hit with your family. Because who doesn't like pie
7:42
Everybody likes pie. Mmm. Looks delicious
7:51
and I love the fact that we've got different things in there that you don't get in a normal
8:01
macaroni and cheese you know like I said you got your veggies
8:05
your pastry your bread your carbs and tomatoes and the bacon and
8:14
it's just a steam in y'all see the smoke Eddie
8:35

8:50
