GARLIC PARMESAN MAC & CHEESE
such a lot for getting back on target with meal prep, right?
I mean.
And guess what.
It was well worthwhile .
With that cream mixture which hidden gem of added gorgonzola cheese (a Stilton would also work!), I’d cheat meal prep again and again.
Tell me you guys wouldn’t do an equivalent .
Right?
And be happy to feature in some grilled chicken or your required protein to the present mac and cheese.
Maybe some veggies.
But they’d really just get within the way of all that white sauce .
Truth, guys.
