You can make this Mac & Cheese in around 10 minutes with little effort and it doesn't matter if you aren't spot on with the ingredients, this recipe will always work out. I like to serve it with crumbed chicken or chicken strips. My kids take leftover to school in a thermos for school lunches.

Notes
This macaroni is best eaten fresh! It can be stored in the fridge for 2 days, but the macaroni will soak up a bit of sauce and it won't be as creamy.
