Let's get started
*get your pot of water boiling on the stove

* grate 2 cups of cheese (cheddar/mozza/colby whatever you have)
*in a big micro safe bowl add:
1/4 c butter
1/4 c flour
1 t pepper
1 T mustard (should be dry mustard, but that's too expensive so you use wet mustard in the squirt bottle)
* micro 1 mins and mix well
* check the water, if it's boiling add the macaroni
* now add 1 3/4c milk to micro bowl
* mix really well
* micro 2 mins
* go stir macaroni on the stove
* stir milk mixture really well and get all the stuff from the sides incorporated
* 2 more mins in the microwave
* macaroni should almost be done, if so drain
* if the milk mixture isn't quite thick enough, 1 more minute in the microwave
* add cheese a little at a time and stir
* after all the cheese is in...taste and add salt here.
*add the drained macaroni, stir
* now everybody in the microwave for one more go'round for 5 mins
