There are many ways you can make this dish your own. You can try using a different type of cheese, top it with fresh herbs and breadcrumbs or play around with the seasonings. My aunt makes a delicious macaroni pie with powdered ginger in it! Once you make the dish a few times, you’ll figure out what flavours you enjoy best. Again, if you prefer a classic macaroni pie, like the one in the Naparima Girls’ cookbook, you’ll want to take a look at my Trinidad Macaroni Pie recipe instead of this one.
INGREDIENTS:
3 cups Cheddar cheese, grated
2 1/4 cups milk
1 cup cooked beef, cubed
1 cup elbow macaroni, uncooked
1/2 cup original Bisquick mix
2 eggs
1/4 teaspoon salt
Fresh parsley, chopped, to garnish (optional)
PREPARATION:
Preheat oven to 400°F and lightly grease a 10-inch deep-dish pie plate. Set aside.
In a large bowl, combine 2 cups of the cheese, the beef, and macaroni and mix together. Spread in pie plate.
In a blender, blend together milk and eggs until smooth. Add bisquick mix and salt and, again, blend until smooth. Pour over mixture in pie plate.
Bake until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean, 35-40 minutes. Sprinkle with remaining cheese and bake until cheese melts, just 1-2 minutes more. Let stand 10 minutes before serving. Sprinkle with parsley, if using. Enjoy!
