Mac And Cheese Ham Pie

Very intense, rich dish due to the sharpness of the cheeses melded with spicy, creamy, and tangy flavors. This was THE BEST macaroni and cheese I’ve ever tasted! I cut back on the fat by draining and discarding the bacon grease and using non-fat cream cheese and non-fat sour cream elsewhere in the recipe. WOW! […]
