I love mac and cheese. I love it even more when I don’t have to do a lot of clean up after 🙂 I love the idea of not having to make the cheese sauce separately. This reminds me of sopas (macaroni soup) that I loved as a kid but with the milk broth reduced to a creamy consistency and with loads of cheese!
I love to say “I love” ♥ ♥ LOL. I didn’t say I’m a good writer! 😛
You may add any veggies that you like and hopefully your kids will not notice or complain when they do. My 12-year doesn’t like eating veggies but I always tell him he doesn’t have a choice; he has to eat it whatever is on the table OR no phone/ipad time. Works. Everytime. Yay to technology! 😀
Happy Cooking!
