PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Cook the whole wheat macaroni according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Stir in the garlic powder, salt, and black pepper, adjusting seasonings to taste.
Add the cooked macaroni to the cheese mixture and gently toss to coat evenly.
