Baked Mac and Cheese

A couple hours ago I asked Mom what was to make for dinner.  She said pigeons.  My cousin shot some pigeons yesterday, Dad cleaned them, then Mom cooked them in the crock pot.  However, we needed something else to go with the pigeons.  Mom suggested baked mac and cheese.  So this was my second try at making baked mac and cheese.  It turned out a little better than the other try. I used a different recipe.  It said to used a pound of cheese and 8 oz of cream cheese.  That's a lot of cheese.  I doubled the recipe so it was a pound of cream cheese and 2 pounds of cheese.  It said to used white cheddar, which I didn't have.  I was thinking about using Velveeta, but that would have used the whole box.  That's a lot of cheese.  So I used a mix of Jackby, Jack Derby, Colby, and American cheese.  It tasted okay.  However, the cheese was a bit curdled or something.  Maybe all the different cheeses I used did not melt properly.  So next time I make this recipe I will either use all cheddar or all Velveeta.  However, I have now found another recipe that looks good, so I will make that recipe next and then maybe try this again later on.
