We enjoy being creative with macaroni and cheese. This version was fun and easy to make and with having a picky eater in the home, she had seconds.
Ingredients:
1lb Radiatore Noodles
1/4c Butter
1/3c Flour (for roux)
1&1/2c Milk
1c Heavy Cream
1&1/2tsp Kosher Salt
1/2tsp Ground Garlic
1/4tsp Ground Coriander
1/2tsp White Pepper
1 Bayleaf
4oz Cream Cheese
3c Cheddar Cheese(shredded)
Directions:
– Prepare pasta according to pkg directions.
– In another medium sized saucepan.
– Melt butter- Add flour and cook for 3 minutes.
– Add milk, cream, and seasonings.
– Bring to a boil, mixing to prevent lumps.
– Add cheeses and mix til smooth.
– Add cheese sauce to noodles and mix well.
When serving, top with a little bit of shredded cheddar cheese and a few bacon bits. This does make a large family portion size. I enjoyed it so much I couldn’t resist another 2nd helping.
Yummy & creamy !

Hi. Yes. I use coriander in most of my foods. I used to use MSG. But found out the harmful affects it has on the human body. But Coriander does the same thing and is healthier. My next post is where coriander really comes out. Esp when a young one is sick and picky.
