No ratings from Darwin, I made this just a while ago. It's pretty easy to prepare not to mention a healthy and yummy snack to be served.

Update: I wasn't expecting Maria Morisse until tomorrow, but she dropped by this afternoon and caught me in my "pangkatulong" mode. Anyway, I'm glad I have the mac and cheese ready (I was supposed to cook chicken pastel and beef stroganoff for her tomorrow).

Anyway, she liked the mac and cheese, I did too actually. =)

Tip: You may also add spam or ham for added taste.
