SPAM MACARONI AND CHEESE



Spam Macaroni and Cheese image

This decadent yet simple recipe pairs creamy macaroni and cheese with crispy, salty-sweet diced Spam for a dish that bridges Puerto Rico and the South. It's much quicker than most homemade macaroni and cheese recipes (which often require making a roux and cream sauce), without sacrificing texture or flavor. It is also incredibly adaptable, because it will work with most cheeses. If you have the time and the will, sprinkle the finished macaroni with extra cheese and bake under a low broil for 5 to 10 minutes until toasted. During tough times, a box of instant mac and cheese and a can of Spam will also yield delicious results.

Time 30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (12-ounce) can Spam, cut into 1/4-inch cubes
Kosher salt
1 pound dried macaroni
3 cups whole milk
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
4 1/2 to 5 cups shredded cheese (about 20 to 24 ounces), preferably a combination of Monterey Jack and sharp yellow Cheddar
1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Bring 4 quarts of water to a boil over high heat in a large, heavy pot or Dutch oven.
  • Meanwhile, heat a large nonstick skillet or wok over medium-high, then add Spam and fry for about 10 minutes, stirring often, until the meat is evenly browned and crispy. (Feel free to taste along the way until the Spam reaches your desired crispness.) Remove from heat until ready to use.
  • Once water has come to a rolling boil, add a fistful of salt, then stir in the macaroni. Cook according to package instructions, stirring several times, until al dente, about 7 to 9 minutes. Drain the noodles in a large colander, then rinse the noodles and the pot with lukewarm water.
  • Return pot to stovetop over medium heat and add 2 cups milk. While the milk is warming, combine remaining 1 cup milk and the flour in a medium bowl and whisk together until there are no lumps. Once the milk starts to steam, whisk in the milk-and-flour mixture, and continue to whisk gently until a béchamel forms as thick as plain yogurt, about 12 minutes.
  • Once the sauce is thickened, reduce heat to low and slowly whisk in 4 cups shredded cheese until fully melted. Add white and black pepper, then season to taste with salt.
  • Off heat, add Spam and cooked macaroni, and fold a dozen or so times until thoroughly mixed.
  • Serve immediately, passing the extra cheese at the table, or transfer the macaroni to a casserole, sprinkle with the remaining cheese, and bake under low broil until toasted on top, about 5 to 10 minutes.

SPAM AND MACARONI HASH



Spam and Macaroni Hash image

This is definitely not the kind of recipe I usually post on Zaar. In fact, some people who read this recipe may think I am out of my cotton pickin' mind and wonder where I get the nerve to call my self a cook at all...lol. But, I love this stuff. First of all, you have to be a spam lover to even consider this. I have loved spam since I was younger. I don't eat it often, now that I am an adult, but there are still times that I find myself wanting it. This was one of those times. I was having a lazy day and didn't feel much like cooking and this is the recipe that resulted. I was very much in the mood for spam and for fast results. My husband even liked this and he isn't much of a spam fan most of the time! So, if you are thinking about trying this recipe, you have to love spam, ok? You can add two beaten eggs after it it all together and then put some spaghetti sauce over the top and bake it as well. I did that once but I like it better just plain when I am in a hurry!!! the cooking time of 10-12 min. is for cooking the macaroni. But if you decide to do the oven one with the beaten eggs, you will cook it 30-40 min. or until the eggs are set and well done.

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 15m

Yield 1 Casserole, 4-5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 (14 ounce) box deluxe macaroni and cheese mix (the kind with the little foil packet of creamy cheese sauce, not the dry sauce)
1 (12 ounce) can Spam (I used the Lite one)
1 (15 ounce) can French style green beans, well drained
garlic powder
onion powder
1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes, well drained. you can save the liquid for something else. (optional)

Steps:

  • Cook the macaroni as per pkg. instructions. Drain. Squeeze the cheese sauce on the macaroni and mix well. I did not add any margarine, just the cheese sauce. When well mixed, add the green beans and mix well again. Open the can of spam and grate it. Then, add it to the macaroni/green bean mixture and mix well. If you choose not to use the diced tomatos, you are ready to eat. If you choose to use the tomatoes, add them and mix them gently inches At this point, you can either put it in a casserole dish, and pour two beaten eggs over it, then top it with a layer of spaghetti sauce and bake it until the eggs are done and its hot and bubbly OR you can just eat it the way it is sprinkled with salt and pepper. Either way, I think ist yummy. It is even better the next day heated up in the microwave. But, I warn you, if you don't like Spam, you won't like this!

CLASSIC BAKED MACARONI AND CHEESE



Classic Baked Macaroni and Cheese image

Think Stouffer's without the freezer. While it can be enjoyed straight from the pot, this macaroni and cheese has a slightly looser sauce than the stovetop variety to allow for thickening in the oven. Bread crumbs, while optional, make it truly spectacular.

Provided by Alison Roman

Categories     dinner, lunch, casseroles, pastas, main course, side dish

Time 1h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 pound elbows, shells, cavatappi, farfalle, fusilli or other short, tube-shaped pasta
Kosher salt
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
4 cups whole milk
1 clove garlic, finely grated
1 teaspoon smoked or hot paprika
Freshly ground pepper
12 ounces sharp or white Cheddar cheese, grated
12 ounces fontina or Gruyère, grated
1 cup coarse bread crumbs or panko
4 tablespoons melted butter or olive oil
1/4 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Cook pasta in a large pot of salted boiling water until it's barely al dente. (It should be more al dente than your average pasta: It's going to continue to cook in the oven.) Drain and set aside.
  • Meanwhile, heat butter in a medium pot over medium heat. (The pot should be large enough to hold all the pasta when cooked.) Whisk in flour and cook, whisking constantly, until the flour is foamy and just starting to turn a light golden brown, about 4 minutes. Slowly whisk in milk to avoid clumping. Add garlic, paprika and season with salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer, whisking constantly and paying special attention to the edges of the pot to make sure the flour mixture is totally incorporated.
  • Add grated cheese and whisk to blend until the cheese is completely melted. (The sauce will seem thick at first and thin out as the cheese melts; it will thicken while it bakes.) Season with salt and pepper and add cooked pasta, stirring to coat well.
  • Heat oven to 425 degrees. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil (to catch any cheesy drips).
  • Make the optional topping: Combine bread crumbs, melted butter and Parmesan, if using, in a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper and, using your hands, mix well to ensure the bread crumbs are evenly coated.
  • Transfer the macaroni and cheese mixture to a 3-quart or 9 x 13 baking dish and scatter bread crumbs, if using, evenly over the top. Place on prepared baking sheet and bake until macaroni and cheese is bubbling, thickened and creamy, and bread crumbs are evenly golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving.

MACARONI AND CHEESE-MAPLE FRIED SPAM



Macaroni and Cheese-Maple Fried Spam image

My husband made this dish for me and I watched him with an extremely skeptical look on my face. I didn't like Spam and the whole maple syrup thing just sounded weird. Boy, was I ever wrong. The sweetness of the syrup and the saltiness of the Spam are one of the best flavor combinations.
