Instructions:

Cook Macaroni: Start by cooking the elbow macaroni according to the package directions. Once cooked, drain and set aside.

Add Tomato Slices: After 25 minutes of baking, arrange the tomato slices on top of the macaroni and cheese. Return the casserole dish to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the tomatoes are heated through.
