Susan's Mac and Cheese!

This is a really simple dish that doesn't take long if you have a good oven.
You require....
Macaroni
A block of cheese (cheddar or another similar hard cheese)
Mustard powder
Salt + Pepper ahhhhhh push it or in this case grind it!
Garlic
and 1/4 of a pint of milk or enough to cover base of oven dish!
and then i add other herbs to like Basil and i like to use Herbs de Provence! non of these are essential
Breadcrumbs enough for a generous covering of the top of the oven dish.

Method is as simple as me and you!
Add milk, mustard powder, salt+pepper (ahhh grind it) and garlic (other herbs if wanted) 
Then add a layer of grated cheese as little or as much as you want.
Boil ya macaronis until soft then add a layer of macs to the dish and cover with cheese add more salt pepper and mustard powder and repeat process until you have half a cm gap at the top of your dish then add a final layer of cheese. 
Now add your breadcrumbs in an even covering and grate some parmesan on if you have it in(not essential) 
all you need to do then is oven bake at around 180 degrees C  until the cheese is all melted and the breadcrumbs have browned on top! 
it will be sooo good i promise you im off to have this now for my luncheon!
Serve with Ketchup, Brown sauce or Henderson's!

other things you can add to this are
Ham or some kind of bacon
Sausage
Broccoli
or anything you want really!

this process shouldn't take more than 45 mins from start to finish!
