We’re firm believers that there’s no wrong way to make macaroni and cheese. Sometimes we like to start with a roux and make a creamy béchamel sauce that we can load up with a blend of melty cheeses.
Other times, we opt for a low-maintenance mac that comes together in a matter of minutes. As long as you choose the right cheeses for your style of macaroni and cheese, you’ll find that it cooks up creamy and comforting every time.
It’s no wonder it’s a family-favorite dinner in so many households. Looking for a place to start? This easy version sticks to classic Cheddar and cooks in just four minutes, using a multicooker. Best of all, once it’s gobbled up, you’ll only have one pot to clean!
