Foodie Friday ~ Creamy Macaroni and Cheese

Looking for a meatless recipe for the Lent season..........this is a great Weight Watchers meal with a point value of 6. Creamy Macaroni and Cheese
8 ounces uncooked elbow macaroni
3/4 cup fat-free milk
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup (5 ounces) cubed light processed cheese (such as Velveeta Light)
Cook pasta according to package directions, omitting salt and fat. Drain. While pasta cooks, combine milk, flour, and salt in a large saucepan, stirring with a whisk. Cook over medium heat 3 minutes or until thick, stirring constantly with whisk. Add Cheese; stir until cheese melts. Remove from heat. Stir in pasta; toss well to coat. Serve immediately.
Yield: 4 servings (serving size: 1 cup).
Enjoy:)

This is just what I needed — a mac and cheese recipe I can eat without guilt and will keep me in shape for the beach if the sun ever decides to come out again!

Thanks Judy, Happy Foodie Friday Anniversary!

Problem is that I just can't eat a cup of this no matter how large my salad and veggie is. I always want MORE:) Of course this is the reason why I have 2 different pant sizes in my closet!
