if it's too spicy.. Omitt cayenne pepper... you can add salt at 1tsp for those that aren't salt concious.
I have also made a variation with: omitt onion and garlic powder ..instead.. cooken one large onion, diced, and one clove garlic minced, with the ground turkey.. i've also subbed in fresh oregano for dried...
****SiDE NOTE: when i looked at alot of mac and cheese boxes and compared what users were putting in for using the whole and the nutritional count....MANY forgot that the nutritional information is for ONE SERVING.. and most boxes serve 2 to 3 people.. so you need to make sure if you're using the WHOLE BOX .. to add in ALL of the servings it makes..
ex: Full Circle mac and cheese makes 3 servings @2/3 cup per serving... total amount you need to add for the WHOLE BOX is 2 cups..
