For another fantastic baked macaroni and cheese recipe, try this Layered Italian Baked Mac and Cheese! If you are anything like my family, you could always use another macaroni and cheese recipe, right? Truth is, I don’t actually make mac and cheese too often as it can feel too indulgent to be a regular occurrence. But when we went away for our holiday to Sweden a couple of months ago I cooked it twice in two weeks and my kids have not stopped talking about how much they “LOVE mac and cheese”! So to keep my love for mac and cheese strong, I decided to create another recipe. This time it would be a variation on my usual macaroni and cheese. And once you see how easy this recipe is, you bring it into your rotation as well. Time to celebrate because it doesn’t require making an actual cheese sauce!
Brie and bacon mac and cheese
This simple recipe for brie and bacon macaroni and cheese is based on mixing your pasta with melted and infused with garlic and thyme brie cheese. Adding bacon is optional but highly recommended! Another reason this bacon and brie mac and cheese is such a winner is due to a delicious flavour that comes with the brie cheese itself. All that loving care and hundreds of years of experience that French cheesemakers put into it comes through. It brings your humble macaroni and cheese and elevates it to an incredible height! A little bit of thyme and garlic doesn’t hurt either! I’ve also added some bacon to mine for a little smoky taste and extra texture but that part is entirely up to you. Skip the bacon and keep it vegetarian if you wish but by all means, make it and make it soon!!
