This baked macaroni and cheese recipe is a family favorite. My youngest son could eat a pan by himself I let him.
I am slowly embracing and learning to love/like time spent in the kitchen. Especially with cooking dishes that are my family’s favorite and I know it’ll bring a smile to their faces and requests for “More, please!”. My children, also, each enjoy getting in the kitchen and “helping” out as much as possible. They definitely did not get that from me. However, their passion and excitement inspires me. (And is it just me, but a new kitchen gadget or baking dish will motivate me, as well? Go figure!)
I shared on my friend Natasha’s blog last year my love-hate relationship with the kitchen, how she’s pushing me to do better and a yummy cheesy broccoli and rice casserole I haven’t made in a while and now want. Go figure, right?
Well, I’ve come a long way over the years.
Do you have recipes you’ve perfected to be your own?
I enjoy having “real” recipes I can cook from scratch without using a recipe book or Pinterest. You know, ones I’ve perfected to be my own and can even change things up a bit and still have it come out tasting scrumptious. Who knows? Perhaps my kiddos will call me up one day to ask for the recipe so they can have a taste of home in their own homes.
One of their favorites is my baked macaroni and cheese. I have to admit that over the years I have perfected it and it’s something that all three of them will eat and ask for seconds (and sometimes even thirds). Typically, when I’m traveling for business, I will bake one because it’s something that pairs so well with so many things and tastes even better as a leftover dish.
So from my home to yours, viola! It’s super simple and I often change up the cheese mixture based on what’s in my fridge or just wanting to have a different taste. We, also, love cutting up blocks of cheese and mixing them in for extra gooey yumminess! Yes, we love cheese in this household.
