There’s no doubt that everyone loves macaroni and cheese. We at AllFreeCasseroleRecipes love it because it’s so versatile. It can serve as a main dish, side dish, or even as an appetizer. You can put so much good stuff into a macaroni and cheese dish. Many variations include the addition of meats, such as chicken or ground beef. There are also tons of mac and cheese dishes that add vegetables for more color and texture. Even a simple mac and cheese with extra herbs and spices can be amazing.
We’ve rounded up 8 of our favorite baked macaroni and cheese dishes, just because we love it so much. These can all serve as complete meals for lunch or dinner. Heck, you could even eat the leftovers straight out of the fridge for breakfast if you want (although that’s not recommended).
You can find these recipes and more in our collection of 19 Unique Macaroni and Cheese Recipes!
