Mac & Cheese

This weekend, we participated in a Mac-&-Cheese-Off! What is a Mac-&-Cheese-Off, you ask? Why, it's a fierce and deadly competition to find out who can make the best mac & cheese, of course!

Okay, it's an event that we made up on a whim with our friend Hannah. We each had to find and make a mac & cheese recipe we had never tried before. Then we got together to compare the three different mac & cheeses, and crown the winner. (Well, actually the winner gets an apron, not a crown, but you get the drift.)

Sarah: I made a crock pot recipe from this blog. The recipe was very simple and easy, which is a plus, but it did not yield as good of results as stovetop or baked.

Katie: I made a recipe from this cookbook that I got from Sarah for Christmas. It used sharp white cheddar, bow tie pasta, and it had a jalapeno cream sauce, so it was kind of spicy.

Our friend's recipe used several different kinds of cheese. Katie's recipe won, but none of the three recipes were the delicious, classic recipe we hope to find someday. This is clearly an indicator that the #mac&cheeseoff needs to be an annual event!

Yes, we're aware that we're weird... but we have fun with our weirdness, so who cares? ;)

What did you guys do this weekend?
