One word: Yuck.
6 points of chemical-tasting food. From my first bite to my last, it tasted like I was eating a science experiment.
Not worth it for me. Will work on a homemade recipe.
I have often wondered how many overweight people out here love mac and cheese. It's always available at buffets, it's a huge seller at grocery stores. When our homeschool group toured one of our local grocery stores, they told us it was one of their highest sellers. Who knew? Me, because I love it. (Probably one reason I'm fat!)
DH hates it. DS will eat it on occasion.
So I'm off to scour some healthier recipes or make my own.
I do like to freeze food, and I wonder if I cook the mac al dente if it would freeze well.
My hubby asked me if I was ready to give mac and cheese up. I told him no way, it's one of my favorite things. What I need to do is find a healthier recipe and learn to eat in small quantities. Dare I admit that I can and have eaten an entire box of Kraft in one sitting? I need to learn it's a side dish, not a main dish. And a half a cup of it savored is better than an entire box.
I've been on a similar search, too. I've tried a WW recipe (yuck!) and a light Taste of Home recipe (only so-so). If you come up with something good, I hope you'll post the recipe!
ReplyDeleteBTW, my husband doesn't eat mac & cheese either.
