MAC 'N' CHEESE DINNER
Don't settle for ordinary mac and cheese. This version is my kids' favorite, so I always make a huge pot. It's an easy recipe to cut down or double (or triple!). It can also be made into a low-fat recipe if you use nonfat milk, reduced-fat cheeses and lean ham. -Raymond James, Port Orchard, Washington

Evette Ehrenpreis
[email protected]This mac and cheese was just okay. The cheese sauce was a bit bland, and the pasta was overcooked. I wouldn't recommend this recipe unless you're looking for a very basic mac and cheese.
