Whenever I make mac n cheese, I always do it from scratch. With a cheesy bechamel sauce that I bake the living daylights out of until it's golden perfection.
However.
In recent times, I have been introduced to the President's Choice white cheddar macaroni and cheese packages, and they have changed my life.
It was before Christmas, when I had a junk food and Wii night, which included said macaroni and cheese packs. I must point out again though, how it was a junk food night, and I wasn't going to spend an hour making my mac n cheese when we were at the grocery store buying things like potato chips, popcorn and dip.
And in all honesty, for those of you who've tried it, you know. Who am I to argue?
To add a bit of variety to it, I added medium egg noodles to the plain macaroni for a bigger pot of pasta. To ensure there was enough cheese to go around, I used more milk in the sauce, and compensated with a generous handful of grated aged yellow cheddar, my trusted cheese of choice.
The result? It wasn't as white cheddar-y as the box, but it was still oh so delicious. It actually is pretty hard to go wrong with mac n cheese.
I topped it off with more grated cheddar and let it slowly melt in. Oh! It's making me hungry right now!
