Skillet Cauliflower Mac And Cheese Recipe

Recipe By Southern Living

Its no secret that we love our classic mac and cheese in the south. We wouldnt think about planning a holiday spread or dinner party without it, and it often makes its way onto our dinner menu. So it shouldn't come as a surprise that we wouldn't dare replace our pasta with caulifower. Instead, we decided to combine the two. In this skillet cauliflower mac and cheese recipe, we add cheesy cauliflower to bring an extra dose of flavor and a touch of veggies to the traditional recipe. This creamy recipe is so delicious that your kids wont even notice that theyre eating veggies while enjoying their mac and cheese at dinner or during lunch. Cook the cauliflower, cheese, and pasta all in the same skillet for easier cleanup after dinner. Top this cheesy, creamy dish with crunchy panko breadcrumbs for a nice crunchy finish.
