Add water and salt to a pot and bring to a boil.

Grate the onion, garlic, and bell peppers (or cut them if preferred).

Add elbow macaroni to the boiling water and boil for 7 minutes, keeping the pot uncovered to prevent boiling over.

Remove from heat and strain the macaroni.

Add butter, Goya all purpose seasoning, paprika, black pepper, milk, cheese, grated onion, garlic, and grated bell peppers to the drained macaroni and mix well.

Pour the mixture into a greased baking dish.

Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F for 30 to 45 minutes, depending on how brown you like your macaroni pie.

Optionally, you can make a cheese sauce or melt the cheese on the stove before mixing.

Let the pie cool down a bit before cutting for a cleaner slice (though it's okay to cut while hot).
