I've grown up hearing my mom talk about how hard it is to make Mac and cheese from scratch because the roux is difficult to make and easy to mess up, but the other night I was forced to try it out since I literally didn't have ingredients to make anything else. I was really nervous about screwing it up, so I did a practice roux first (which I did accidentally burn lol) but the second roux was great and the Mac and cheese turned out perfect!! I definitely could have added more seasonings as it was a little plain, but overall im very proud of myself 🙂

Forgot to include it in the post but here’s the recipe I used to make it!
How did it come out?
I’m so jealous. I literally tried to make home made Mac n cheese tonight (before I saw this post) and my sauce was so grainy and ugh. I threw out the sauce and ate the noodles with butter. Yours looks so good and I am still jealous but very happy to see some good homemade Mac n cheese here on reddit
