Looking to switch up your mac and cheese routine? This is the recipe for you! People will never guess there are sweet potatoes in this twist on macaroni and cheese. The sweet potatoes end up just adding extra flavor and creaminess to the sauce with all the benefits of sneaking in some nutrition. That’s always going to be a winner. This dish is perfect for fall entertaining and can really wow people for the holidays in particular.
Make sure you don’t skip the hot sauce in this recipe. Hot sauce brings out amazing flavor when added to macaroni and cheese. It won’t be spicy. I promise! If you are worried about it being spicy, skip the cayenne pepper, but definitely don’t skip the hot sauce! It’s an old trick and it takes macaroni and cheese from ordinary to extraordinary.
I’ve been searching for just a basic mac’n cheese recipe that doesn’t turn out like a casserole. Can I omit the “extras” and still have it turn out? My husband craves the Wisconsin Mac’n Cheese from Noodles. This recipe might just save our marriage.
This one might be a better fit. Just skip the baking part. https://thestayathomechef.com/secret-ingredient-macaroni-and-cheese/

I believe I could eat that whole bowl it looks so good!
