Beyond Boxed

Beyond Boxed Mac: Tested Pasta Dinners

While the humble box of macaroni and cheese remains a reliable comfort food staple, there's a world of pasta dinner possibilities worth exploring beyond the familiar orange dusting. If you're looking to elevate your home-cooked results and venture beyond the pre-packaged, several cookbook titles offer a flavorful route. From the 50 simple recipes championed by Homeroom in their initial guide, to the slightly larger selection of over 100 recipes in the subsequent Homeroom volume, or the expansive 350+ Mac + Cheese recipes including beginners' guides and gluten-free options in "Hello!", each book presents a unique approach to mastering the creamy, cheesy perfection we crave. Don't forget adventurous spirits might also be drawn to titles like "Beyond Macaroni and Cheese," suggesting a broader foray into creative pasta dishes, even if the cheese-centric focus remains central to the topic.
