So, my Grandma Lee made the BEST Mac-n-Cheese ever! Whenever we get together as a family, after traveling the globe, two meals are a must: Corned Beef and Cabbage (we usually celebrate St. Paddy's day in July for birthday dinner) and Mac-n-Cheese. It is made with all the comforts of belly-loving, comfort, and soul-soothing ingredients. Grandma Lee used elbow style noodles, cheese (LOTS), and a simple egg, milk, salt, and pepper mixture. Easy-squeezy!
I modified this recipe yesterday. Marty and I have been feeling a bit nostalgic and missing our kids. We are all over the globe currently in this space of life. So Mama Bear thought of revamping this meal to make it Gluten Free and Paleo. It does have cheese in it, so if you have dairy allergies, feel free to use your substitute instead of cheese.
So here we go kiddos! Some home cookin LOVE from your Mama Bear!
