The LOs have never had ham so we want to do ham and mac and cheese.  Ive never made homemade mac and cheese and felt better giving them that than box stuff?

This is my hands down favourite - it's the cheesiest, creamiest mac and cheese I've ever had.

You have to use REALLY sharp cheese though to get the most flavour.

I LOVE this recipe for a baked mac n cheese.  Personally, I'm not a fan of super cheesy mac and cheese and this is the best combination of cheese flavor without being too goopy.
