Sorry it doesn't take the ingredients you have on hand, but it is delicious.
Mac & Cheese
Ina Garten - Barefoot Contessa Family Style Cookbook
Kosher Salt Vegetable Oil 1 lb. elbow macaroni 1 quart milk 1 stick unsalted butter, divided 1/2 cup all-purpose flour 12 ounces Gruyere Cheese grated, 4 cups 8 ounces extra-sharp Cheddar, grated 2 cups 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg 1/4 pound fresh tomatoes 1 1/2 cups fresh white bread crumbs (5 slices, crust removed)
Preheat oven to 375.
Drizzle oil into a large pot of boiling salted water. Add the macaroni and cook according to directions. Drain well.
Heat the milk in small saucepan, but don't boil it. Melt 6 Tablespoons of butter in a large 4 quart pot and add the flour. Cook over low heat for 2 minutes, stirring with a whisk. While whisking, add the hot milk and cook for a minute or two more, until thickened and smooth. Off the heat, add the Gruyere, Cheddar, 1 Tablespoon salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Add the cooked macaroni and stir well. Pour into 3 quart baking dish.
Slice the tomatoes and arrange on top. Melt the remaining 2 Tablespoons of butter, combine with bread crumbs and sprinkle on top. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the sauce is bubbly and the macaroni is browned on top.
