Truffled Mac and Cheese

December 1st, 2009

You’d think that after all of the rich food I ate over Thanksgiving that I’d be subsisting on carrots and celery through December. Instead, last night I decided that Mac and Cheese would be a more appropriate meal and Kraft just wasn’t going to cut it.  I used this recipe and substituted Horseradish Cheddar and added some truffle salt for a little bite and an indulgent touch.  My tastes have changed a lot since when I was a kid, but comfort food never gets old.

    My girlfriend is making “grown up”, ie. not kraft, mac and cheese for a girls weekend and didn’t have a recipe. I gave her this one and I cannot wait to try it, it looks sinful! Thank you for posting!

    You could put Truffle oil on a piece of cardboard and I’d eat it. Truffles = 10/10!

    I love mac and cheese and when i don’t want to be quite so indulgent, I do a cauliflower gratin. I just may have to use horseradish cheddar next time, or truffle salt – or both – yum! What great substitutions… Thanks!
