This recipe has been a staple for Thanksgiving and Christmas for at least 10 years. I’ve tried her updated recipes but this one is still the best. The Holidays isn’t the same without it and I have you to thank Laura❤.
Made this last night and it was delicious!!! Best mac and cheese I have ever tasted and bf loved it too. Cheese was really thick so I added milk in it until it was more of a sauce consistity. I probably added about half a cup to a cup of milk. And I used croutons for the crust since I couldn't find bread crumbs. I just mashed it up :)
I don't think I've ever been so obsessed with food and watching someone cook. You have the most fun and outgoing personality. and the food always makes my mouth water. Amazing !!!! (:
She's Italian (and from Italy). To say it any other way would be construed as "watering it down". I love her combination of her native roots and obvious American influence.
I've made this but with swiss and provolone. Also made a version with shrimp, another with chicken and mushrooms, and a veggie one with broccoli. Awesome and delicious.
I made a mac & cheese last night, and it was wonderful! Last weekend, I made my first homemade mac & cheese, and it's true, you never wanna go back to the boxed stuff. It's true for me, at least. Homemade is so good!
Xoch I have been making Mac&Cheese since my mother taught me how just before I left home, 40 years ago. I bought a packet of Kraft Mac&Cheese once when I started living alone because I thought it would be easier and quicker. It wasn't that much easier, but it was a bit quicker. But it was HORRIBLE compared to the way my mother showed me. Tasteless and the texture was awful by comparison. I agree with Laura - you'll never go back to that Kraft stuff again once you make her recipe. Think of this ... when you make your own food from scratch, you make it with quality and flavour and nutrition first in mind. When Kraft makes it, they make it with price first in mind. Flavour might not even come into the equation, for all we know. Based on my experience I'd say flavour doesnt come into it at all for Kraft.
Yes I do, problem is I started watching all these chefs and making all kinds of new dishes, homemade bread, homemade pasta, I mean you name it, and now I’ve gained 25 pounds in 1 year and I need Counceling to stop....
Laura I've made quite a few of your recipes and I hope you won't mind if I say that baking this mac and cheese is a huge mistake and really doesn't do it justice! Baking pasta (especially for nearly 30 minutes) dries up/toughens the noodles and the gooey cheese sauce significantly - you get way less cheesy results, not to mention leftovers like shoe leather. It was my dad that put me on to this tip and I've never looked back. I now make your mac and cheese totally without baking - I just pop it under the broiler for about four minutes (or less - gotta watch it carefully) to crisp up the topping. Perfect! Try it this way and I think you'll find it's a big improvement :)
Ingredients: =) ½ lb of Corkscrew Pasta (or any shape of pasta you like), cooked according to package directions and drained 4 Tbsp of Unsalted Butter 4 Tbsp of Flour Salt and Pepper to taste 2 cups of Whole Milk, warmed in either a microwave or in a small pan 1 cup of Extra Sharp Cheddar, grated 1 cup of Mozzarella, grated ½ cup of Parmiggiano Reggiano, grated ¼ cup of Bread Crumbs 4 Oz of Pancetta, cut into small dice 1 tsp of Olive oi
It's 11:04 pm here in Houston right now and me and my husband fell in love with this reciepe so much that we went out to buy the ingredients right now! we decieded to cook a tiny bit before making a whole batch for our guest tomorrow and i have to say this is just so delicious ! thanks Laura ! I'm a huge fan of yours :)
OMG Laura! just finished eating this delicious recipe of yours! INCREDIBLE!! (Didn't have any mozzarella...so did 2 cups of cheddar ch....and had some mizithra cheese on hand so used some of that...n made with bacon instead. OMG soooo creamy!!! So filling!!! And the bread crumbs on top, yum!!! Def added this to my recipes collection!! Thx!! :D
Billa Billi how do you know she doesn't speak Italian? Most of her viewers probably speak English so of course that's the language she is going to choose to speak.

She actually works out hard and eats healthy majority of the time. But when she cooks these videos, she obviously doesn’t eat it all. She eats in moderation. She has another personal channel where she explains how she stays fit.
you go girl .. i have to say you are one of my favorite people whose recipes i have made and they always turned out soo.bomb thank you laura you are awesome!!!
Hi Laura:) I just love all of your recipes, I am a big fan of yours! I tried the mac and cheese I made for dinner and it turned out AWESOME with a capital A! Thanks loads,
Saw Laura on QVC and liked the dishes I saw, checking her out on here and amazon, and I must say... I really like her food style and recipes... so gonna get her new cookbook!
yong 0001 I wasn't making fun of your spelling at all! in Quantum Physics it is impossible to know the state of a particle so it is supposed to exist in all states at the same time until a state can be determined.... Anyway Schrödinger's cat is both alive and dead at the same time, just like this pancetta, which is and isn't on the dish at the same time
I can't remember if I commented on this already, but I tried this recipe out and it was amazing!!! Never thought to use mozzarella before. It really does make it unique by giving it that super gooey texture! So yummy
Laura I just have to tell you this video changed my life I found this when I looking for a Mac and cheese recipe then I found yours it the only recipe for Mac and cheese I use I make it every thanksgiving your recipes my favorite everything I've made from you I've loved I can't wait for your cookbook I can't believe how far you've come I'm so proud of you I'm proud to call you my food icon
I also feel like there was quite a bit of cheese left in the pot after she transferred the Mac and cheese to the dish! Coulda scraped the pot a little ;)
man i really want to eat something like this.. ive been eating plain food for months because my dad has a heart problem and my moms been going insane with the health food sob
For a healthier version you could substitute whole milk with skim milk, use whole wheat pasta and low-fat cheese. You can also replace butter with low fat margarine and skip the bread crums and (of course) bacon. In place of bacon you could try diced chicken breasts and add some spices to the roux to give the sauce extra flavour, for example thyme, bay and walnut. Also, when adding the cheese, do it in a couple of times so the sauce doesn't break down. I'm trying to become a cheff but i'm also concern about health so I hope my tips help :) That's what I do and it still taste great! Sorry for my english and greetings from Argentina!
kawaiipeach With the substitution of all the fat products for lean and white pasta for whole wheat I would switch the bacon for Lean Turkey Bacon. and of course use moderation for your Dad.
Hi Laura,you make all these recipes looks so easy, thanks for sharing all your recipes.Delicious. Can wait to start cooking for Easter.I love to cook. and bake

Are you Italian? Because you said mozzarella and parmigiano and pancetta very well(I am Italian)
She is
Billa Billi doesn't a different dialect still count as italian though? :P
She was born in Italy and lived in Italy until she was 12 I believe. She is first and foremost Italian.
Billa Billi how do you know she doesn't speak Italian? Most of her viewers probably speak English so of course that's the language she is going to choose to speak.
+Georgia Andrea she's Italian who lives in long island.
I love watching your pasta and baking videos the most!
I'm in love when you say "mozarella"
i'm italian and we say it like this
Or have it with some fried chicken
Tomorrow i am going to make this for my family.I have never tried to make mac and cheese.I am 12 years old and i love cooking. ❤️🧀🍴
I just love your recipes. When I want to prepare a dish, I just go to: Laura in the KItchen.
I tried it yesterday and it was a full succes. Thanks for all your recipes :)
I am just so happy watching this, and tortured because I can't cook this. LOL
MY HUSBAND AND I WERE SOLD WHEN YOU SAID "OOEY GOOEY" AND "BACON". SUBSCRIBED..LOL
I'm going to do this for my fam for Thanksgiving this year I just won't look as hot doing it lolol 😉

When you're starving this is porn..
She does what I do..
im fascinated by the fact that you are not fat someone use science to explain this
Eat healthy food, everything in moderation. Don't eat fast food.
most of her food is actually pretty healthy. it's real food, not over processed crap
It's a little thing called metabolism. And also MaZEEZaM is absolutely right--everything in moderation
She actually works out hard and eats healthy majority of the time. But when she cooks these videos, she obviously doesn’t eat it all. She eats in moderation. She has another personal channel where she explains how she stays fit.
you need to learn some manners and stop obsessing over woman's weight
Laura you are an amazing cook.
Laura this recipe is fantastic. I will make it for my family. Thank you.
I'm soooo hungry OMG

ChantelFaith haha.. all that cheese should have been in the mix. i would have totally went for it.
Great recepie Bella thank you ...
Looks so good Laura I would love to give it a try
