20121011 Baby Mac and Cheese



(Made this again to take the picture!) Forgot to take a picture as I was too busy tending a baby who is sick and teething at the same time. This is Olivia's very first Mac and Cheese, and she LOVED it! Olivia is chewing well these days so I try not to mash all her food together. This actually looked like a proper dish, so it is a shame that I didn't take a picture. Oh well, another time. The most important thing is, my baby cleaned her plate! (Note: the below makes two servings for a hungry baby!)

INGREDIENTS
15g butter
15g flour
1 cup full fat milk
grated cheese
3 baby carrots, sliced and steamed
2 chicken tenders, steamed and shredded
1/2 cup uncooked macaroni

METHOD
1. Cook the macaroni in a pan of boiling water. Drain and set aside.
2. In a small sauce pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in enough flour to make a roux. Add milk to roux slowly, stirring constantly. Stir in the cheese, and cook over low heat until cheese is melted and the sauce is a little thick.
3. Put macaroni, sliced carrots, and shredded chicken in a bowl, and pour sauce over it. Stir well and serve.
