Macaroni and Cheese is a comfort food that is a favorite of kids and adults. I realize that most of you probably buy Kraft mac and cheese or simply add Velveeta to cooked pasta. Don't get me wrong, I love that. Let me inspire you to be a little bit more gourmet. The recipe below is a four cheese mac and cheese. We serve this at our parties as a passed "mini meal" or at kids parties as their main course. Try serving it in mini ramekins instead of in a big baking dish. This presentation is fun and contemporary. If you really want to impress the adults add a tablespoon of truffle oil to the mix prior to baking it and POW BOOM BAM !!!!
