  1. One word--Sublime. Honestly, the best mac and cheese I have tasted and I have tasted many. A little bit of effort, but def worth it.

  3. This review is from my son. I prepared this and left heating instructions for my son. It was just him and my husband for dinner and this mac and cheese is all gone! They enjoyed this with some parmesan chicken strips and a salad. They loved this dinner!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I am a mom with an awesome 9 yr old daughter who loves to try new and different foods. My husband is Fillipino and eats some very strange things that I just can't bring myself to even try! I work part time during the day...who am I kidding, it's more like full time, and the hubs works 3rd shift as a Corrections Sgt. He cooks 3 nights a week (God I'm lucky!) but it has to be relatively simple. I read cookbooks like most women read Danielle Steele novels, can't live without my slow cooker, swim every chance I get and am constantly trying to improve who I am and make my small mark on the world before I'm gone.
