Directions

• Add 1/2 cup of milk to a medium pot and bring to a low simmer over medium-high heat, about 2 minutes.
• For an even dreamier, creamier mac and cheese, feel free to use half and half in place of the whole milk! Im a huge fan of this method and the result is an ultra thick, ultra creamy sauce that rivals anything processed.
• Add the fresh shredded cheddar cheese and stir well until melted.
• Stir in Three Bridges macaroni until fully coated and bring to 165 degrees F, approx. 30 seconds at medium-high heat.
• Add fresh spinach and bacon on top or swirl it all together!
• Serve with a fresh salad for a balanced and delicious meal.
• Enjoy immediately.
