Directions
Spicy Ham and Tomato Macaroni and Cheese Casserole, This is a family favorite!, Very good! The family really enjoyed it A nice change from plain mac and cheese type casseroles I loved the addition of spices and tomatoes As written, this is not too spicy so I’ll use 2 fresh jalape?os, minced, and 1/4 t cayenne without worry This makes a huge 13×9 dish, plenty to feed my family of five at least two meals So next time, I’ll freeze half to bake later Thanks for sharing the recipe!
