Boil noodles till al dente. (salt water)

In a 9x13 pan/caserole dish start with a thin layer of milk. Just enough to coat the bottom. Then one layer of pre boiled elbows only one or 2 noodles thick. Layer on slices of cheese careful not to overlap. Place a dime size amount of butter on each slice of cheese. Drizzle lightly with milk and repeat. Upon the top layer do only noodles and cheese. Dust with bread crumbs. For a Nice brown top do not cover with lid or foil and spray with non stick cook spray.

Filling enough to make a meal of and GREAT for bbq's!
