Just tried pouring some ginger ale in my lemonade (homemade). 10/10, much better than I wouldn’t thought

    Macaroni and cheese and pretty much anything.

    Tuna Mac: Tuna?

    Tuna and any grilled vegetables?

    Poverty Mac: Pork and beans?

    Pork and beans AND chopped up hotdogs?

    Spaghetti Mac: Leftover spaghetti sauce?

    Taco Mac: Leftover taco meat?

    Get the velveeta Mac and cheese for extra luxury.

      Greatest comfort food recipe ever:

      Mac, Cheese, Peas, and bacon.

      The recipes online are all nonsense. They either mix the bacon in or put it under the mac and cheese!

      White cheddar cheese sauce with macaroni. That goes into the casserole dish.

      A layer of peas on top of the mac & cheese.

      2 pounds of bacon cooked crispy and crumbled on top of the peas. From the top you shouldn’t see anything but bacon.

      Put it in the oven and cook it till it starts bubbling.

        Yaaaass! I haven’t done this in forever, but it is actually really good! Looks like I know what I’m adding to the grocery list next week.

          I was out with friends from work and this recipe came up (I added it to our wiki at work under the oncall issues page).

          Whenever it is brought up, I have to make it or I never stop thinking about it.

          The recipe was handed down from my grandmother through my mother, but we could never get the white cheddar cheese sauce to work right. My wife figured out what we had to do, and now it’s easy.

        It sounds like a classic, the name had that ring to it, but what do add to the Mac? Left over chili? What kind of chili?

      Mac and cheese with chopped hotdogs was a staple of my childhood. Used to drown it in ketchup to make people squirm.

        Hotdogs in mac and cheese is awesome! I cut the hotdog lengthwise in quarters and then into tiny bits, then cook it up in a pan for a few minutes to get the texture before adding it to the mac and cheese. Chopped bacon is also fantastic in mac and cheese.

        Adding ketchup sounds awful though.
