Mac & Cheese Thread

I like mine with salt and pepper. And sometimes hotdogs.

Of course my mom makes it best. Home made style.

I don't really eat it.

poor deprived soul.

I think it's mostly because we ate it a lot growing up and I just got sick of it.

Okay before I start commenting on the quotes below. I could seriously quote each one of you and give comments. And this thread makes me SO hungry. I could definitely eat mac & cheese every day. I like it in a box, or homemade. Although I havent had it homemade in a long time.

The only mac & cheese that i dont like is restuarant mac and cheese. No one seems to be able to make it Except for KFC. I know that sounds weird, but they make awesome mac & cheese.

How do you like it?

Homemade? From a box?

What kind of cheese? Do you put meat in it?

Since I mostly eat mac and cheese from a box I'll just tell ya what brand. I like kraft or velveeta. Elbow noodles or the little spirals are really good too.

I do like some baked mac & cheese too, if it's made well.

I like homemade the best. My grandmother's is the most awesome mac n cheese on EARTH. And I don't say that just because she's my grandma.

She makes it with cheddar (loads of it), Velveeta AND cream cheese. Yes, please.

Oh me word. This sounds really good. Partly because I love cream cheese. Is that it though for the recipe, she just puts mac and cheese noodles (elbow or spiral?) and then the three cheeses?

Oh...and no meat in hers.

I do like mac n cheese with either tuna (plus peas) or turkey (or chicken) link sausage.

I've never had meat in any mac and cheese, but I can bet tuna would be really good in it.

I make it the way my mom makes it (which I think is the way my grandmother also made it): switch between layers of macaroni and sliced cheddar (from a block of cheddar) in a casserole dish and put pepper and dabs of butter between each layer.

I'd love to try this, it sounds delicious!


Edited to add: I just realized, I dont like meat IN my mac & cheese, but I do like a meat with it. Usually bologna but sometimes with ham.

I am headed offline to make just plain elbow macaroni covered with butter NO cheese.

 

[LadyOfMystery]

That sounds good too.

 

[kittysbecute]

I had mac and cheese for lunch today.

 

[LadyOfMystery]

We have a box of Velveeta. Might be what I make tomorrow for lunch

My great grandmother made the most amazing macaroni and cheese ever. No one, seriously, no one else can even come close. Even my grandmother who had the same recipe couldn't do it. I swear, there was magic in that stuff.

[CelticGrace]

[Dzhessika]

I can see the yummyness of hotdogs and mac & cheese, even though I prefer ham or bologna. I just dont see the yummyness of ketchup on mac & cheese. lol

Course then again I've never tried it so Im not putting it down just yet.

I could see the appeal of ketchup on boxed mac. And I so love how much pepper you put on it I put tons of pepper on everything lol

This is one tasty thread...

Homemade is best, but the boxed "deluxe" versions can come close. Sometimes, I'll add a little barbeque sauce or other ingredients for variety.
