I don't diet. There's going to be barbecues and macaroni and cheese - but I'll have broccoli and salad the next day. -Ginnifer Goodwin I’m a fan of Ginnifer Goodwin’s eating style… I mean, did you see the Ultimate BBQ Mac and Cheese I shared last week?! Since I’m also a “have your veggies and eat them too,” kind of girl, I was thinking; why can’t we health something up, like Mac N Cheese, by adding the most loved/or hated green vegetable I can think of, Broccoli? Personally, I have always LOVED my broccoli! Seriously, when I was 12 or 13,…

At the beginning of this series, I shared with you a quick and easy BBQ Mac and Cheese. I consider that recipe to be the flavor introduction to this Ultimate BBQ Mac and Cheese, or as my family calls it "Vegan Mac Crack"! Where there is BBQ, there is mac and cheese. This is a very popular opinion in the south and I'm bringing it to your table with a dairy-free and meatless spin. (This one is gluten-free optional too! All you gotta do is swap your favorite gluten-free pasta for the mac!) "I associate mac & cheese with every…

All of this cold “spring” weather has me craving hot and spicy foods, all day... every day. So today, I’m following up last week’s spicy Buffalo Mac and Cheese with an equally spicy jalapeño popper inspired mac and cheese! “You’re going to wanna get jalapeño bowl of this mac and cheese.” - Me The Origin This recipe has been on my list of things to make for a few years. When I had my old blog, Tasty Kaiti’s, I created three gourmet grilled cheese sandwiches (one of them being the Mac Daddy Grilled Cheese featured earlier in this series). One grilled…

Between Spinach and Artichoke Mac from 2 weeks ago and today's mac and cheese (buffalo style), I think it's safe to say that I miss eating creamy appetizers when dining out. These mac and cheeses take their inspiration from creamy crowd-friendly dips, satisfy my cravings, and don't disappoint when serving them up to a crowd! "I'm a health nut, but when I eat, I go hard. I'm a Buffalo wing magnet..." -Kevin Hart There are very few things I miss since cutting out dairy, eggs, and meat. But there is something about the spicy and vinegary kick of buffalo wings that I still…

As I mentioned in last week’s Mac Attack series installment (Spinach-Artichoke Mac) today is inspired by Tuesday, TACO Tuesday! "Everything goes better with tacos!" - A quote from Bitter Blood, by Rachel Caine I love that quote... it's so true! Who doesn't love tacos?! (If you know of someone who doesn't, you probably shouldn't trust them!) Alright, it is time for Taco Mac and Cheese! First of all, no, I’m not talking about mac and cheese stuffed into a taco. Though, there was a tv show in 2011 that created a “spaghetti taco”. Literally: spaghetti and meatballs with red sauce…

“Woah, we're half way there! Woah, livin' on a prayer.” -Bon Jovi That’s right we are halfway through this Mac Attack series! And now (since I'm feeling particularly musical today), to quote The Cha-Cha Slide, “it’s time to get funky!” From this point on we are spreading our wings and making some fun spins on Mac and cheese. Some may start with a basic recipe, but some will take on a life of their own. Today’s Mac does just that! Slightly inspired by my grown-up Mac and cheese, this recipe is a nod to a classic appetizer dip that kids seem to…
