Macaroni & Cheese Surprise
No matter how old I get, I still love the occasional meal of mere macaroni & cheese. Sometimes I add crushed Doritos or the Hormel "real" bacon pieces (not bac-os) to give them a little crunch. However, avoid adding sliced hot dogs, grilled onions, and crushed Doritos all in the same batch. That particular combination turned out to be pure barf.
Food for thought. |

Do you use box Mac and Cheese or make it from scratch?

First of all, box macaroni and cheese is what the VC served in the Hanoi Hilton. It is cruel and unusual punishment and an abomination.
This is an interesting website for some good mac and cheese recipes. http://www.macaroniandcheeseandcheese.com/ They have a contest every year based on nationwide submissions. We have made some of them...very delicious.

If you eat it, it makes you more qualified in areas such as national security and immigration/border control.

I have several variations, the most complicated being a recipe that was featured by the smiling Italian lady on the Food Network (the one who likes to show us her boobies). Usually though, for the sake of time, I use the "deluxe" versions from a box that have their own cheese pouch, therefore I don't have to bother with the butter or milk.

This is a good one from Bobby Flay that I gave to LiveCoug back when he and I were dating.
http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/b...ipe/index.html It is really good and pretty easy to make.

That's not really Mac n Cheese, it's really a version of spaghetti carbonara using elbow mac noodles instead of spaghetti.
