Ahhh....finally. What better antidote for 3 days of fiber bomb dinners than pasta and cheese?
I originally had Mac N' Cheese with sweet potato when my friend Katie made it for me . . . it's a pretty amazing combination that has become our standard way to make homemade mac n'cheese. I can't find my recipe from Katie, so I just made a basic baked mac n' cheese recipe from Joy of Cooking and added in one sweet potato that I had diced and roasted (about 400 degrees for 20 minutes). If you want the basic outline for this recipe, you can find it here. (I recommend ignoring his advice on increasing the onion and paprika. Stick with 1/2 medium onion and 1/4 tsp of paprika). Otherwise, if you have a fav homemade mac n'cheese, try it with sweet potato next time. I was able to convince Elsa that those orange cubes were not squash, and she ate it all.
