I added some heavy cream to the bowl.
I also added some garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper to the bowl.
I whisked all of the ingredients together well.
I added the cooked macaroni noodles to the bowl.
I stirred until all of the noodles were coated in the sauce.
Then I added some cut green beans to the bowl.
I stirred well again.
I also added some shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese to the bowl.
I stirred the cheese into the macaroni mixture.
Then I dumped the mixture into a greased 9 x 13 inch baking dish and spread it out evenly.
Then I sprinkled some more shredded cheese on top of the macaroni.
I sprinkled some French’s crispy fried onions on top of the cheese.
