Like, how can this stuff be described except to call it a cheese alternative? We all know that, in reality, not a single one of the veg “cheese” alternatives out there tastes like real cheese. I always feel bad when a non-vegan tastes vegan “cheese” for the first time. Instead, it’s a creamy, flavorful alternative to the dairy stuff that will leave you richly satisfied in your decision to leave the cows alone.
and slightly more crunchy topping.No, it isn’t cheese…even though it kind of looks like it. i used slightly less cheese and it was still mega-cheesy. The real deal – very little way to improve upon this! perfect texture, delicious all around. Scored big points with my boyfriends kids!Įxcellent.I used Gruyere cheese in addition to Cabot sharp was delicious and a big hit with the family. I used two or three kinds of good cheese and add 8-10 strips of bacon and a small bag of frozen broccoli and cauliflower. I looked and looked for a basic recipe, and this is it. Also a touch of tabasco for a little subtle kick. I like to add a crushed garlic clove and some thyme sprigs to the milk while it's heating ( on very low) Find that it adds a nice flavor. I used velveeta sharp cheddar cheese and Colby jack cheese and even added a little cayenne pepper to give it a small spicy after taste kick Not sure it's a repeat considering the high fat content.įirst time making baked Mac and cheese and I thinks this one turned out perfectly. Left a lot of things to wash, and kids were only so-so about it. Would make it again but undersalt the pasta and not any salt to the cheese.ĭefinitely a heavy mac and cheese dish. I made this tonight and came out too salty. I cooked the pasta very al dente and assembled it 10 hours ahead, baked it for 45 minutes because out of the fridge, broiled it for a couple minutes to brown the top. Made it for a party and people kept finding me to tell me how great it was. But the best Mac&cheese I've made (or maybe even had). Extremely cheesy, so you have to like a very cheesy and rich Mac&cheese.
I added grated parmesan on top of the bread crumbs and broiled it for two minutes at the end. I also sautéed the bread crumbs with crushed garlic which added a great flavor. I followed the advice of others and "only" used 7 cups of grated cheese and it was plenty cheesy.
#Gourmet kid friendly mac n cheese free
SO GOOD! I made this as a gluten free dish using Jovial brand brown rice pasta, Ian's gluten free panko breadcrumbs and Bob's 1:1 GF flour and it was amazing! Everyone loved it and had no idea it was made gluten free. I did steal a few large bites before packaging it up for delivery it was very difficult to resist gobbling it up! I used Tillamook sharp cheddar for the cheese. And WOW, it was so delicious that I am sad that I am delivering it to them! Disclaimers: I have not baked it with the crumb topping yet (but tasted the crumb topping adding a handful of cheese to the breadcrumbs is a great idea) and I modified the recipe by microwaving the milk rather than using a third saucepan to heat it (used a quick-read thermometer to make sure it was hot but not boiling temperature.) Otherwise, no changes.
However, I am doing a fair amount of cooking for elderly relatives who said they loved it, so I searched for a recipe that sounded decent, and put it together in short order. I baked in 2 10" pie pans and tossed some bacon in one and topped with Trader Joe's Crispy Jalapenos, delicious!Īs a kid, I did not like Mac and cheese, so I haven't made a habit of making it as an adult. I followed the recipe pretty close but found 2 bags (1Pound ea) of elbow macaroni was perfect for the huge amount of cheese sauce.
