I tried this recipe without the garlic (as we don?t use onion /garlic in our cooking) and it turned out just as tasty and delicious!! It is a very simple to make yet nutritious dish. It also stays well for 3-4 hours in the lunch box. Thank you!!

Macaroni in this cheesy white sauce is super delicious. The broccoli gives a perfect mouth feel to this creamy pasta. I also add baby corn something which also enhances the flavour. This recipe is one of those which is loved by kids as well as adults.
