For a richer flavor, use freshly grated Cheddar cheese instead of pre-shredded. Add a sprinkle of paprika or breadcrumbs on top before baking for a more appealing golden crust. Feel free to customize this recipe by adding other vegetables like peas, carrots, or bell peppers. To prevent the macaroni from being too dry, you can add a splash of chicken broth or milk to the mixture before baking.
