Macaroni and Cheese Masterpiece!
May 19, 2013 By Heather Leave a Comment
This is by far my favorite mac n’ cheese ever! It really is the best. It’s the best for taste and how easy it is to make… and cleanup… one pot, that’s it!
I first posted about this almost a year and a half ago but the pictures did not do it justice even though it’s one of my most popular posts ever. You can get the recipe here. You will not believe how easy it is. It also takes exactly the same amount of time as the boxes stuff {I times it}, but there are no added chemicals or other fillers. You know exactly what you are eating and you can feel good about feeding it to your kiddos. It’s certainly not diet food so it’s not something to eat everyday {you will want to, trust me}, but when you are craving Mac n’ Cheese… this is is!
I’ve made a few changes to the recipe lately to suite my changing tastes {why they are changing now is beyond me} I now use extra sharp cheddar cheese and a shake of garlic powder. I also add the butter to the milk before the pasta is added. This helps everything melt together and blend into the creamiest sauce you will ever taste!
