Directions
The Ultimate Creamy Macaroni and Cheese,There is always room for one more mac & cheese recipe. This newly created version with the addition of ricotta cheese puts a whole new spin on this traditional comfort food. Is this recipe too large for your family? Remember, Mac & Cheese is terrific frozen in serving size portions for use later. Created for RSC 16, and was awarded First Place. My thanks to everyone that reviewed the recipe.,Too thick. Too flavorless. Nasty. Hot Sauce does not belong in Mac and cheese. Wish I could give it 0 Stars. Wish I could get my time back. Took. Too. Long. Disappointed my family. Strongly recommend to not make this recipe…!,I tweaked a wee bit, added a 1/4 cup mozzarella and used a black pepper turmeric blend, then used Panko for the topping As well used just straight 3.5% homo milk – was DELICIOUS!!
