[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One of Alton Brown's better episodes is where he makes a traditional baked mac 'n cheese, his "son" gets mad at him, and then he also makes a box'd mac 'n cheese equivalent for kids. This is the kids recipe: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/alton-brown/stove-top-mac-n-cheese-recipe.html[/quote] This is what I make (I don't have kids, but make it for parties, etc.). If you are making it specifically for kids, I would omit the dry mustard (or at the very least halve it), and use mild cheddar instead of sharp. It's easy and really tasty![/quote] I wanted to add that when I was a nanny, the kids were used to boxed mac and cheese. I tried lots of recipes for homemade mac n cheese, and they would never eat it. I think they liked this one because it has a creamy consistency, it's yellow, it's not baked and crumby, and doesn't use "fancy" cheese.[/quote]
