truly a merry recipe! this macaroni is everyones favourite in my house. simple and delicious. my kid goes gaga over it and asks for more everytime. i make it as an excuse to incorporate veggies in her diet. i do my lil variations by eliminating peas and adding little cream and cheese....my mouths watering already!
