Grannies Mac and Cheese

Grannies Mac and Cheese – Celebration Time

Grannies Mac and Cheese is pure comfort food. I remember her serving it often but I could always count on it being served at any holiday celebration.

I make it often and I don’t change a thing.

If you do want to kick it up a notch I would suggest adding some diced jalapenos and pancetta.

But please give it a try as is first!
