If your family is filled with macaroni and cheese lovers, but what you don’t love is the preservatives- this recipe is for you! It is so creamy, the texture and flavor rival velveeta without all of the junk. I even used Goodles Noodles for some added protein. The secret to creamy cheese sauce is grating the cheese straight from the block. This comes together in under 30 minutes to perfect for busy weeknights or even lunch!
The Creamiest Macaroni and Cheese
Servings: 6
Equipment
- 1 medium skillet
Ingredients
- 8 oz Curve Ball Goodles other pasta- like macaroni or fusilli work
- 2 cup organic chicken broth
- ½ tsp pink Himalayan salt or sea salt
- ½ tsp organic ground mustard
- ½ tsp organic garlic powder
- 1 cup organic heavy cream
- 4 oz cream cheese
- 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese shredded from a block
- 1 cup mild cheddar cheese shredded from a block
- 1 cup Monterrey jack cheese shredded from a block
Instructions
- Heat a skillet over medium- low heat (a little closer to medium).
- Add in the 2 cup organic chicken broth and bring to a slow boil.
- Add in the ½ tsp pink Himalayan salt, ½ tsp organic ground mustard, ½ tsp organic garlic powder and 8 oz Curve Ball Goodles.
- Stir frequently and adjust the heat so that is is just a low boil. You don't want it to hot.
- After about 7 minutes and the noodles start to absorb the liquid, pour in the 1 cup organic heavy cream.
- Continue boiling and stirring until most of the liquid is absorbed and the sauce thickens. About 3-5 minutes.
- Add in the 4 oz cream cheese. Stir until the cream cheese is melted.
- Remove from heat and stir in the 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, 1 cup mild cheddar cheese and 1 cup Monterrey jack cheese until melted.
- Enjoy!
Notes
The reason I use Goodles is for the protein, but you can use any pasta. I like a curved pasta or one with ridges to really catch the cheese.
