Homemade Mac and Cheese is one of America's favorite comfort foods. Not only is it inexpensive to make, you can add a variety of flavors that will satisfy everyone from kids to adults alike.
Recently, I was thinking about how much my girls love mac and cheese. Sure, they love the one we all grew up with made with Velveeta cheese.
But as their taste palate expanded, they now appreciate all of the other flavor combinations you can make by adding protein, vegetables, herbs and spices.
These cheesy pasta dishes can be made for an easy weeknight meal, holiday gathering, game day festivities or serve as a side dish with your favorite entree.
