Hi Will --- I think macaroni and cheese is considered the ultimate comfort food by many -- of course my favorite is a toasted pb&j sandwich.

This looks like a tasty dish!  I have always liked macaroni and cheese, so I am glad that it is now made in adult forms, as I always felt like I ate like a child, haha.

Will Hamm With the recent report in the news about pthalates present in Kraft Mac & Cheese, the only option is for homemade now. Great recipe!
