Love buffalo wings? Get that same hot, zippy flavor in everything from deviled eggs to enchiladas. And of course: wings.
Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.

I've been looking for that perfect baked mac and cheese forever. Looks like I found it! It has just the right combo of flavors, milk to cheese ratio, etc. THis is a recipe everyone will love (if they like mac and cheese) and it's pretty simple to make and doesn't contain a bunch of packaged ingredients. It's really a recipe you can be proud to share! So, thank you for sharing it@

This was definitely worth the effort, my husband loved it (he normally doesn't like macaroni and cheese). I used buttermilk for this recipe and it was scrumptious!

Excellent mac and cheese, love the onions in it. Will definitely make again, maybe with a dash of nutmeg.

This is a good dish! Something I would take to a potluck for sure. I had to make a couple of substitutions. I used Steak sauce(diluted)in replacement of Worcestershire sauce because I didn't have any on hand, and I didn't add the onion, but it still has a smooth cheesy taste. I can't wait to make it again with the added ingredients! Thank you for sharing your recipie!
