• Creamy Broccoli Cheddar Shells & Cheese
• Macaroni and cheese is absolutely one of the most favored comfort foods on the planet. It seems every time you add a smooth creamy cheesiness to a dish, people go crazy for it. Homemade macaroni and cheese is basically how I started getting the girls to eat vegetables. Over the years I would make different variations, like this broccoli cheddar shells & cheese, and they would eat it up no questions asked. Now, had I put the broccoli on their plate next to mac and cheese- forget it.
• This recipe happens to be a stove top recipe. I hear feedback from readers about they love homemade macaroni and cheese but just don’t have the time to oven bake it or desire to slow cook it. Now, you will see below I have included a quick and easy way for you crunchy bread crumb lovers to still get that flavor. Best of both worlds here.
