Mac 'n Cheese, If You Please

by Rothkopf-Bates Rothkopf-Bates on June 03, 2010

A box of macaroni and cheese is a busy mother's best friend. It's ready in minutes, is warm, nutritious and filling (especially if you opt for a brand that offers whole wheat pasta), and is a wonderfully inexpensive way to feed a hungry brood. Also: Kids love it. What more could a mother want?

Well, variety, actually. The following recipes can help when you find yourself faced with the age-old question: "What can I feed my family that is new and something that they'll like?"

Please note: Any kind of boxed macaroni and cheese can be used, from bright orange elbows to creamy white shells.

    This is great! I love buying Annie's for my kids and they can't get enough of it. As a super-busy mom, I buy a lot of ready-made meals from Amy's and Tastybite too, and lately my kids can't seem to get enough of Tastybite's Madras Lentils. They're so tasty and I even use it just as plain soup or add them to a dip too. Very delicious and easy and all of their products are all natural and preservative free. I trust that brand a lot and can't tell you how many time they've saved my butt! Bon appetit!
