Are You Hungry?

On the weekends I babysit a little boy. Every Saturday we cook dinner and bake a dessert. Today I am going to share a recipe with all of you. The recipe is macaroni and cheese. There are three ingredients to this recipe: macaroni, cheddar cheese, and sour cream. You will need half a pound of macaroni, 8 ounces of cheese, and 8 ounces of sour cream. The first thing you need to do is fill a pot with water and bring it to a boil. Then place the macaroni in the pot. When the macaroni is cooked, strain the macaroni. Next, place the macaroni in a baking dish. After that, put the sour cream and shredded cheddar cheese in the baking dish too. Then mix all the ingredients together. Finally, place the baking dish in the oven for about 30 minutes. Enjoy!
