The other day I was looking for a more homemade, gourmet tasting Mac N’ Cheese compared to the usual Kraft we keep on hand, and I searched for options that would be super quick versus spending all of precious naptime making a rue. This was such a success, it needed to blogged about!
It’s only 5 steps, and seriously takes less time than the boxed version- with the homemade feel and love of an oven baked Mac N’ Cheese. Being in Wisconsin, we keep a ton of variety of cheeses in our fridge. If you only have cheddar, this recipe works just as well with just cheddar. I will advise that shredding cheese off of the block melts much smoother than the pre-packaged shredded cheeses, so if you can swing shredding your own, do it!
