Introduction
Trying to satisfy my 6 year old's request for mac and cheese while simultaneously providing a healthy meal brought me to put a few recipes together to create this. High quality pasta will elevate this dish to be better appreciated by the foodies in the crowd. The best thing about this dish is that it only uses one casserole dish and a blender!
