This Reuben Mac N Cheese is a Rachael Ray recipe that you should really give a try. It’s a great use for leftover corned beef and a very interesting Mac ‘n Cheese.
Kiddies love this stuff. Even if they don’t like corned beef! It can be prepared in the morning and baked in the evening!
I made this recipe after watching Rachel Ray make it on the Food Network and it is indeed YUMMO!
