Phase II Friendly Macaroni & Cheese?
| Fri, 05-06-2005 - 9:07pm |
i've been wanting (i have small children) macaroni and cheese in the worst way. now, i'm not hungry and it's not an actual craving. but i make homemade mac and cheese for the kids and i used to eat it with them (and i wonder why i have to lose 30 lbs!). is there such a thing as whole wheat elbow macaroni?

I made mac and cheese recently. I am a huge Paula Deen fan so I used her recipe and just substituted it with SBD-friendly ingredients. My boyfriend even ate it and he is very picky about his mac and cheese!
The Lady's Cheesy Mac
4 cups cooked elbow macaroni, drained (use ww pasta or I have used Dreamfields/Barilla Plus, but I know they are "not the best choice")
2 cups grated cheddar cheese (I used light cheese, but ff would also work)
3 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup sour cream (again, I used light or ff)
4 tablespoons butter, cut into pieces (Smart Balance)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk (ff)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Once you have the macaroni cooked and drained, place in a large bowl and while still hot and add the cheddar. In a separate bowl, combine the remaining ingredients and add to the macaroni mixture. Pour macaroni mixture into a casserole dish and bake for 30 to 45 minutes. Top with additional cheese if desired.
Maggie,
I have not been to Paula's restaurant yet but I am DYING to go! I visited Savannah only once and did not realize that her restaurant was there until it was too late to get reservations. But I will definitely have to go sometime. I love her show and often make her recipes (SBD-friendly for me but regular for guests).
V, after you eat in there, you won't want to eat for another 48 hours!
