    Great flavour but possibly needs a little more sauce- on the drier side

    love this recipe for a higher protein alternative to mac and cheese. really tasty. (although don’t heat it up in the oven as it dries out completely! always microwave)

    Delicious but definitely don’t use Flora. Butter always wins over UPFs. Makes me cringe what goes into Flora and similar!!

    A few amendments to the cheeses but absolutely delicious and a real "treat meal" feel.
