Comfort Food

Utahns do a few things pretty well, funeral potatoes, jello w/ carrots, salt water taffy, Mormon Muffins. But, I wasn't brought up on anything resembling comfort food. I didn't even know what cream cheese was until I was 14. I ate a lot of vegetables and wheat bread growing up and I'm sure I have very strong bones because of it...ya da ya da ya da....

I still eat a lot of veggies and wheat bread but sometimes you just need some cheese, eh.

Which brings me to COMFORT FOOD.

I have a co-worker who is from the south. A while back we were talking about cooking (I don't, I bake) and laughing about how the only thing she makes is Mac & Cheese. Well she made some for me and holy cow it was good. SO GOOD. And I really favor the stuff with the yellow powder from the box.

Well she gave me the recpie last week and I made it on Sunday. I messed up the order of the ingredients, but it was still pretty fabulous. Can't go wrong with cheese, cheese, milk, butter and more cheese.

MMMMM.....
