A blogging friend shared her favorite mac and cheese recipe with me recently so you know I have to post about it.

Gathering all the ingredients, I was ready to make the magic happen.
This recipe was a bit more labor intensive than my old standby, but I was up to the task.

Rich and creamy doesn’t begin to describe the sauce.
.

Out of the oven, the freshly made garlic topping smelled wonderful.

I served this alongside twice baked pork chops and fresh green beans but honestly it was so decadently cheesy it could stand alone as a meal. My husband found the garlic topping a bit overpowering, but he’s not a lover of the pungent bulb and I am… so it stayed.
I’m looking forward to polishing off another bowl of this yummy leftover for lunch and while a lot of recipes lose their cheesy goodness the next day, I’m betting this one won’t.
Thanks again Jan!
It’s a winner.

I can handle two big bottles of sangria in my house, but that’s a LOT of mac-n-cheese…

This looks pretty good. It’s a bit more precision engineered than I might make, I don’t even measure for a recipe like this but the flavors are a bit more nuanced so I get it. Now bring on the Salisbury steak!

Whenever I try a new recipe I make it exactly as directed the first time. After that it’s all about the tweaks..

It’s a decidedly different flavor than most mac and cheese’s. My husband wasn’t a huge fan but I liked it.

I’m not a big Mac-N-Cheese Fan but the Chicken Broth and Garlic Topping might change my mind.

This is not your normal mac and cheese.

I’m so happy you liked it! I think you’ll find it stays sufficiently creamy and cheesy for about four days.
