Comfort food at its best and easy enough for Mira to make. They work great even without tossing them in melted butter first. For this photo, I sprinkle panko crumbs over the top as that is what I have in the cupboard. More often than not, I omit the bread crumbs on top. Served with Caesar Salad and an ice cream sundae bar, it is not only a no-brainer for me but a huge success with the kids. We make tons of this for bar and bat mitzvah parties. This is straight up mac & cheese, no motherly embellishments of added nutrition or questionable vegetables. Here it is Mira now you have to make your mother dinner!Īnd why not?

Little does she know that I've made it for dinner recently and have the photo file ready to upload. Checking my email after Shabbat, I read that my friend Charna has a message to relay to me. She has shown her 14 year old daughter Mira, my G-d daughter, my website. Mira likes it but wants my recipe for mac & cheese.
