So today I’m making a kind of a twist on a Macaroni and Cheese recipe, it’s Macaroni with blue cheese. I just finished sautéing my mushrooms, made my pasta a little bit early, as I’m going to add some cream and about two thirds of the blue cheese that I’ve got. Ready to go, it’s a bit sticky, oh well, turn the heat on; and I just need to heat it up, melt the cheese. So there we go, our cheese is melted, and just turn that off; there we go. Alright, let get to put our mushrooms on top; spread this a little bit on it; I’ll just add a little bit more pepper. Who, I’m not good on sprinkling, am I? Alright, let me just going to pop up under the broiler for two or three minutes. And there you have it, Macaroni and Blue cheese, thanks for stopping by Little Gourmet.TV
