This is my absolute favourite mac and cheese recipe. Even though I'm slightly allergic to cheese.
This was adapted from an old cook-book I found in the basement; give it a try and let me know your thoughts on it!
I usually add a little bit more breadcrumbs on than the recipe calls for, but I'm slightly obsessed with Panko I think!!
Enjoy!
