I made the most amazing Mac and Cheese

[Dirty Hippie]

I was out of elbow macaroni so I used wide egg noodles, and I needed to use up some smoked gruyere.

Basically, I boiled the noodles until done.
Made a white sauce (with added garlic and a dash of tabasco).
Layered the noodles, then grated smoked gruyere and sharp cheddar (about 2/3 gruyere, 1/3 cheddar) then another layer of noodels and cheese.
Poured on white sauce using a fork to make sure it distributed and baked.

Oh. My. God.

1. Smoked cheese in the mix is a good.

It's like adding a little bacon in terms of flavoring.
Hey, it's time for my annual pan of mac and cheese, now that you mention it.

4. I just saw an article about "suggestions" for Super Bowl food

I don't even watch football, but this caught my eye...

"Deep-fried Mac & Cheese".

My initial reaction is "gross" but I don't know... anyone here ever had it?

5. I ran across a recipe

from Paula Dean for fried lasagna.

Never had either, but I love fried grits!
