Hatch Chile White Cheddar Mac And Cheese: Cooking With Courtney

From Feed the Soul Blog:

Can you ever get too old for mac and cheese? I think not. Don’t get me wrong; I love a good fluorescent orange powdered cheese sauce just as much as the next person. But making a homemade macaroni and cheese recipe feels extra festive, cozy and nostalgic.

This creamy, comforting double-cheese macaroni recipe is ready with eight ingredients and 30 minutes. It puts a fun spin on the classic flavor combo of green chile and cheddar.

Dare I say that this decadent white cheddar mac and cheese recipe with hatch chiles, garlic and Monterey Jack cheese even feels elegant? This is not the Kraft mac of your childhood. This easy macaroni and cheese recipe might surprise you with its simplicity! No fancy preparation or cooking techniques.

If you hear “cheese sauce” and start panicking at the thought of scrubbing burnt cheese off of your cookware, fear not. This sauce is very creamy and isn’t cooked over high heat. Stick to the measurements in the recipe and you shouldn’t have any problems.

Serve it as is — or if you want to get creative — with cilantro or a simple pico de gallo. I like to sprinkle some Tajín on top, too.
