Macaroni and cheese is my favourite comfort food!
Traditionally, mac and cheese is unequivocally abounding and complicated on butter, cream and, well, cheese, so we wanted to try a lightened adult chronicle — though compromising ambience and texture, of course.
Mac and cheese is an easy plate to get artistic with: we piquancy it adult with reduction such as peas, kale, bacon, crab, cauliflower, and even a cashew cream sauce. we motionless to spin to an doubtful part for a boost: butternut squash.
Combined with one per cent divert and a accumulation of cheeses, a squish adds a rich, eccentric flavor, sneaks in a few servings of vegetables, and splendidly mimics a colour and creaminess of a rich, cheesy sauce. Plus, a contingent of confidant cheeses packs some-more season than a one-cheese approach.
