This recipe has quickly become a favorite at our house! It is quick to put together (great after a long day of kindergarten) and is super tasty – much better than any box mix for sure!

Vanessa,
I’ve never seen a HM mac and cheese w/cottage cheese – this sounds like it might make the grade at our house! It’s the next one I’m trying, for sure.
Thank you for your kind words and for hooking up with the carnival today!
Katie
I hope that it’s as popular at your house as it has been at ours!
