Muenster Mac and Cheese

Macaroni and Cheese is one of my all time favorite foods. Pizza runs a close second! I’m not kidding when I say if I could only eat one food for the rest of my life, it would be macaroni and cheese. And I’m not talking about the kind in the blue box. I’m talking homemade white sauce with any blend of creamy cheese! Ahhhh – comfort food at its finest!!

My Muenster Mac and Cheese is creamy and mild. Try if for a change.
