Am'S Boston Baked Macaroni & Cheese - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 lb pasta, cook almost through (I used penne pasta)
    1/2 cup butter
    1/3 cup flour
    2 cups milk
    3 cups cheese (I used 2/3 of a brick of 16 oz of both Montery Jack & Sharp Cheddar, break into chunks)
    2 eggs, beaten
    1 teaspoon salt
    paprika
    1/2 cup breadcrumbs
Preparation
    Cook pasta--half way through prepare sauce below.
    Simmer butter, flour.
    Add milk until slightly bubbly.
    IMPORTANT!--Remove from heat--add cheese. Mix cheese but do NOT completely melt (will be too thick). Unmelted chunks will melt in oven.
    Add beaten eggs and salt and mix.
    Put pasta in casserole dish and pour mixture over, and stir.
    Add 1/2 cup bread crumbs on top of casserole (I used Italian Style). Sprinkle plenty of Paprika, on top.
    Bake covered, at 350\u00b0 for 25 minutes. Uncover and put under broiler to brown top.
    ***(Leftover Option: (fried mac & cheese)***.
    Cut into squares and coat with breadcrumbs. Saute/fry in skillet (oil).
    OK-didn't say it was healthy, but good!
