I'm always looking for new ways of making mac and cheese and this is a great way to make it a little "fancier". I really liked the combination of the cheeses and the addition of the red pepper to spice it up a bit. I had leftovers and let me just say, it's even better the second time around! Thanks for a Mac and Cheese recipe!!!

Since April 2008, I have been a vegetarian. I dont eat creatures...that's the easiest way to put it! :D
I still eat a small amount of dairy, but not very much.
I have been missing around here for a while, and hope to poke my head in a bit more often from now on...
I hope you enjoy my recipes...
