"Macaroni and Cheese that comes in a box or from the freezer isle is so chocked full of preservatives and artificial colors and other things that aren't that great for you.  About half way through, I usually regret it, but then Mac and Cheese is a quintessential comfort food.  So I developed this homemade version based on a simple white sauce and adding lots of cheese and a bit of garlic.  Make only what you can eat in one sitting because it does not reheat well." - April Ferre
