mac & cheese kind of girl

recipes

18 Feb
Lately, I have been obsessed with macaroni and cheese. All kinds: from the box, made with a cheese sauce, with a crunchy topping, spicy… you name it. I’m not usually cooking it myself, but I seem to have cultivated a mac & cheese awareness that my brother pointed out to me last weekend as we were deciding where to go and I was able to describe each restaurant based on the quality of it’s mac & cheese. When I am making it, I have to admit to an extreme love for Kraft Three Cheese mac and cheese, by far my favorite box recipe!
Yesterday on Pinterest I found this picture.

Delicious-looking, AND easier to make than the box?! I was intrigued. I went to Brian’s for dinner tonight and was adamant that we cook this instead of going out. This is a rare occurrence.
It was very tasty. Not as creamy as I was hoping for/expecting, but still yummy. The chicken broth and cream cheese make it very rich. It was pretty good though.
After this experience I was thinking back to the other recipes that I email to myself and save on Gmail (I think this idea came from Kate at Elefantitas Alegres). I was perusing my accumulated recipes (that I don’t make but have saved for later) and I realized that an alarming amount of them were pastas. These three are ones I definitely want to try sooner than later:
Pasta ai Quattro Formaggi a la Pioneer Woman.
Lighter Baked Macaroni and Cheese from Skinny Taste.
Bacon and Parmesan Pasta via In No Simple Language.
What have you been craving lately?

    I am totally a Mac & Cheese girl too – love it! I have made the Bacon and Parm Pasta from Rachel at NSL and it was really really good! (We only cooked 1/2 the noodles but kept the sauce full and that's totally the way I'd make it again!)
