One Pot Mac & Cheese
One Pot Mac Cheese
"This creamy, cheesy homemade stovetop mac and cheese is almost as quick and just as easy as the boxed stuff, but oh, SO much better. Made in one pot, requires just 8 ingredients, and takes just 20 minutes from start to finish! There are a number of ways you could also zhuzh up this mac and cheese if you're looking to mix things up. Here are a few ideas: Simply swap the sharp orange cheddar for white cheddar. Add some protein by adding ground beef, sausage, diced ham, crispy bits of panchetta or bacon, crab meat, or even lobster (maybe for a Valentine's Day dinner?!). Add some veggies by stirring in some roasted broccoli or cauliflower, chopped greens (spinach, kale, or swiss chard), caramelized onions, or some diced tomatoes. Or try it with a spicy flair by adding in a 4oz. can of diced green chiles, a generous drizzle of your favorite hot sauce, or adding a sprinkle of cayenne or crushed red pepper. Any way you make it, it is sure to be utterly delicious!"
