Recipe Tips:

For a creamy mac and cheese, make sure to sauté the sauce until it is thick and creamy. If the sauce is too thin, add a bit more flour and continue to cook until it thickens.

To add a bit of crunch, top the mac and cheese with some gluten-free bread crumbs.

This recipe can easily be doubled or tripled for a crowd.

For a cheesy mac and cheese, add an extra cup of shredded cheese.
