Recipes » Side Dish » Casseroles
Simple cheesy goodness...a true comfort food you'll crave again and again. This is the Macaroni and Cheese recipe that I grew up with plus some additions to improve it, It's very easy to make, very tasty, and far better than the kind out of the box. I like the recipe because it's so classic and so simple. It makes a great side dish, especially for fried chicken, chops, meatloaf,

Very good! Recipe is great either way, but just before baking I often add 2 eggs for more of a 'cake-y' finish! Agree with previous reviewer that you have to be good with 'smokey' favors - I love them, my wife, not so much.

Delicious. I added way less cheese and cream cheese than called for and it was still delicious. Will make again!

This had a little too much 'smokey' flavor for my taste from a macaroni & cheese recipe. If you like the smokey cheese and consider them on your 'comfort food' list, you'll probably really like this recipe.
