the good stuff - mac n cheese

Updated on Jun 18, 2013

I've been making this casserole for years and both my family & customers always love it. I hope you will as well. It's a generous recipe, reheats & freezes well. I like to keep 1 or 2 in the freezer for those "No time to cook" nights. We love it with steamed brussel sprouts and garlic bread.
