When I am in a hurry and need a potato dish this one has never failed me. It is quick and easy and very pleasy. hehe I have taken this to work parties, church gatherings, family functions and the list goes on... My husband is the one that makes the killer mashed potatoes and gravy but if I'm making potatoes and need to get it...

This recipe is not for the faint of heart! The jalapeños really pack a punch.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my mac and cheese turned out dry and clumpy. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what happened.

I'm not a huge fan of jalapeños, so I was hesitant to try this recipe. But I'm glad I did! The jalapeños are actually not that spicy, and they add a really nice flavor to the dish.

I made this last night and my family loved it! The only thing I changed was that I used mild cheddar cheese instead of sharp cheddar. It was still very flavorful and cheesy.
