    Patti LaBelle's "over the rainbow mac and cheese"  However, I'll give you my sister's secret if you promise not to tell (shhhh!)  She sautee's about 1/2 cup each of diced (practically minced) celery and onion in butter and adds it to the macaroni before the cheese.  We literally fight over it at Thanksgiving.  Trust me, you'll be glad you did this!
