The creamy part of this recipe sound strange, but trust me it's good. I can't make this just for me and the hubby (since he'll only eat mac and cheese from a box), but it's usually a hit at parties.

Ingredients:
-1 3/4 cups dried macaroni
-2 cups shredded cheese (I like the Four Cheese Classic Melt)
-3 tablespoons chopped parsley (or parsley flakes)
-1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
-1 3/4 cups cottage cheese
-1/2 cup evaporated milk
-2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
-1/3 cup Italian Style Bread Crumbs
-Grated Parmesan Cheese to taste

Preheat oven to 350*. Cook macaroni according to package instructions. Spray a 2-quart casserole with non-stick cooking spray. In a large bowl, combine cooked macaroni, cheese, parsley and pepper.
In a food processor, combine cottage cheese, evaporated milk and Dijon mustard. Process until smooth. Pour over macaroni mixture and stir until completely mixed in. Transfer into prepared casserole.
Sprinkle bread crumbs and Parmesan over top. Bake uncovered 25 minutes or until hot in the center.
