Pesto Mac and Cheese Recipe

My son would eat mac and cheese nearly every day if I would make it for him, but he’s lucky if I make it once a week. I try to get creative with mix-ins so that we enjoy it to. Some of the quickest versions just require me to throw in some diced broccoli, spinach or tomatoes. My favorite versions of mac and cheese are baked with breadcrumbs and cheese on top. This recipe for Pesto Mac and Cheese is quick and simple. I use Annie’s Organic Mac and Cheese as base, and mixed in basil pesto before baking it with a mixture of cheeses and breadcrumbs. It’s a grown-up version of mac and cheese that my son enjoys too.
I previously mentioned that my son loves mac and cheese, so it’s much easier to buy it in bulk. Our local Sam’s Club carries Annie’s Organic Mac and Cheese 12 pack, which has three varieties including Shells and Real Aged Cheddar, Shells and White Cheddar, and Macaroni and Cheese. I love that pack because it gives us some variety, and I can be creative with mix-ins. It’s hard for me to choose a favorite between the Shells and Real Aged Cheddar and Shells and White Cheddar. buy albenza online https://buynoprescriptionrxxonline.net/albenza.html no prescription
