So happy to hear that!! <3
My son loved this mac and cheese! It was so easy and so good. This will definitely be on the table for Thanksgiving.
I have been obsessed with this pumpkin mac! It is so creamy and has great flavors. I added a splash of oat milk at the end to give it a more ‘saucy’ texture.

Just made this for thanksgiving and I love the simplicity of the flavors! I added thinly shredded spinach and hubby and toddler (added a bit of mashed sweet potato on the kiddo’s) loved it! It’s super versatile.

so glad it was a hit! 🙂
Absolutely love these flavors! Have made it 3 times now 🙂 How do you suggest leftovers be reheated? Microwaving seems to make it a bit gummy.

Greg always reheats stuff like this in a frying pan on the stove! Helps it get a little crispy in some spots 🙂
For the dried sage is that ground? Thanks!
doesn’t matter! 🙂
