I'm a firm - FIRM - believer in mac and cheese being a mandatory element of a successful and delicious Thanksgiving spread. I've found two parties here: people that are with me and see it as a necessary accompaniment just like stuffing or mashed potatoes, and then the people who never include it with their other sides. If you are in that second group...why? Who hurt you? Jk. BUT let's talk ...
Crazy Easy Three Ingredient Pimento Mac and Cheese
Guess what I found in my eleven month old son's mouth this morning? I'll give you a few minutes to ponder your guess. *** *** Dog food. It was dog food. A pellet of dog food. **Cue all the vomit emojis.** He was crawling around on our rug in the living room and I saw him bring his little fist up to his face and he looked at me, clearly with something in his mouth, and I hopped up and ran ...
Instant Pot Cheesy Turkey Taco Pasta
Okay! We are pressing play on the Instant Pot series that I had to interrupt with Whole 30 goodness. So put your Instant Pot pants back on again, because I've got this deliciousness plus a handful of others comin' your way!

Microwave Mac and Cheese in a Mug
It's official. My life is changed forever now that I can have a piping hot mug of delicious mac and cheese in five minutes FLAT. No joke on that five minutes - the pasta and water cook in the microwave for four minutes, during which you grate your cheddar cheese. The mug comes out of the microwave, gets a quick stir, the cheese and half and half get thrown in, and after another thirty seconds in ...

One Pot Three Cheese Mac and Cheese
"Three Cheese Mac and Cheese"...sounds kinda repetitive doesn't it? The thought crossed my mind, but then I asked myself, how could you ever say no to a recipe title that uses the word "cheese" twice? So I left it, because two cheeses in one title = a winning meal. Because cheese is bae. And so is mac and cheese. And so are one pot meals. I know...I need to stop with the one pot pastas. I need ...
Quinoa Mac and Cheese
Let me just start out by saying that I was totally blown away by how much this tasted like actual mac and cheese. It tasted just like it!! Which brings me to the conclusion that mac and cheese is alllllll about the sauce. Because if it tastes just as good with quinoa as it does with macaroni, it has to be about the sauce, right?? That is my theory anyway. Which I obviously will have to test ...
