Mac n Cheese, something I must be really picky about because I've tried so many recipes and have only found about 2 that I will ever make again. I really do enjoy some good mac n cheese. I'm so glad this recipe worked out because I was really close to giving up on making my own. This is pretty easy to make and just your standard mac and cheese but it's good! Very good. I wish I had some right now. I never really thought I liked adding breadcrumbs to my mac and cheese but I like it here. Adds a nice crunch, and it's not overpowering. Okay, on to the recipe! I hope you enjoy it just as much as I did.
I made this in these cute little new pots my sister bought me for my wedding! Thanks sis.
Classic Mac n Cheese
2 cups Toasted Bread Crumbs salt
1 pound pasta shapes
6 Tbs unsalted butter
2 medium garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp dry mustard
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
6 Tbs all-purpose flour
2 1/4 cups low-sodium chicken or vegetable broth
3 1/2 cups milk (low-fat is fine)
1 pound colby jack cheese, shredded (about 4 cups)
8 oz extra-sharp cheddar, shredded (about 2 cups)
ground black pepper
Bake uncovered, until the sauce is bubbling and the crumbs are crisp, 25-35 minutes.
As seen on Your thriving family weekend whatever

Now this is a recipe that a vegetarian like me can enjoy! I'll have to try this one. And I'm with you, haven't found any great Mac n Cheese recipes so far.
I have also tried SO many M&C recipes and hubs has not been satisfied with any - so I am ALWAYS up to try a new one! Once family is out of town again we'll have to give it a try. PINNED
