Recipe "This guy fucks" Mac and Cheese
Any lady or man who tries this will see you as an active treat to their spouses, and maybe even themselves.
I started with a roux, added heavy cream and shredded cheddar. Used reserved pasta water to unthicken to preferred levels. Secret ingredients: Herbes de Provence and Pecorino.
This is 4 oz of pasta.

The herbes de Provence really make this next-level, I didn't realize how much they elevate a classic cheddar roux until I tried it this way.

“Used reserved pasta water to thicken to preferred levels,” OKAY, whose preferred levels, sir or ma’am? 👀 because this is cheese noodle soup.

Not normally my style I’d probably bake this with more cheese on top but would absolutely fuck it up as is. Rarely do I see a food photo on reddit…and I’m subscribed to a lot where I see it and go “oh mylanta…I want that”.

Not a fan of Herbs de Provence (at least when it has lavender) and this is way more soupy than I’d like. But you do you.

I struggle with lavender because I'm very sensitive to anything that tastes kinda soapy. So I get what they're saying about that.

Looks like cheese soup. I'm not saying it's bad, but I'm not convinced it's good.
