Mac and cheese without extra protein are boring

Who are Mac and Cheese?
>>
>>21945155
>>
>>21945152
that just means you didn't use enough cheese
>>
>>21945152
nah a good mac and cheese doesn't need any extras. it just takes away from the essence of it. it's like grilled cheese in that regard. simpler is better.
>>
>>21945152
thats the side dish version, when you add protein it becomes a meal
the real crime is not using breadcrumbs
>>
>>21945175
I like topping it with fried onions

Tell me about it. I often add corned beef and mustard to my mac & cheese.

You have to be at a certain point on the ‘Mac n cheese spectrum’ to appreciate plain Mac n cheese.

I do this too. Well, the corned beef. Never thought about adding mustard to mac and cheese because that sounds like the act of a crazy person

>she's never heard of mornay sauce
Bechamel, mustard, cheese brings you down to your knees, that's a Mornay.
If you love your fondue with a light yellow hue, that's a Mornay.

It's fine to serve the protein separately.
>>
>>21946933
seems like a waste of corned beef

For me since I'm not a fatty I make mac-less and cheese. Plus plenty of meats, peppers, egg, whatever I want for healthy variety.

Not everything needs to be a casserole together, especially considering brown is flavor.

My baked macaroni and cheese always gets some minced onion in the bechamel step, and I like to add cubed butternut squash, which I poach in the pasta water during the last 2-3 minutes of cook time.

Corned beef was literally $1.99/lb last week. We bought four briskets.
>>
>>21948272
gee I wonder why it was cheaper last week hmmm that's a real headscratcher

check back with me next week
>>
>>21945390
those easy mac cups never have enough in them. it's a snack not a meal. total ripoff.
