By the way, I'm currently eating my second helping. This stuff is too good. Maybe I'll run it off in my race on Saturday...It will only be the 2nd 10k course I have ever run. I've done a 10k in Lewisburg for the past 5 years, but it's the only 10k I've ever done, and while my times for the past 2 years have been decent, I really really want to break 40 minutes. I'm hoping to achieve that this weekend. New course, flatter course, and hopefully some better competition to help carry me to a PR!
Anyway. Cream Cheese Mac. Deliciousness.
Boil some water and throw in about half a box of elbow macaroni. In a smaller saucepan, combine 3 tbsp butter, 3-4 tbsp cream cheese, a bunch of heavy cream, 1/4 c wheat flour, and a big handful of shredded cheese. Once everything is all melty and delicious, and the macaroni is cooked, combine in an oven-safe dish. Oh and by the way, grate a carrot and mix it in with all that. Then you can pretend it's healthy. Mix well, sprinkle more cheese over the top, and bake at 375 degrees for 30 minutes.
I enjoyed my mac and cheese on a bed of arugula, topped with a crabby beef burger and some shaved & sauteed parsnips. And then I drizzled ranch dressing over the whole thing because...I thought it might be too dry without it? And...go big or go home?
It was delicious.
Eating super healthy all the time is overrated.
and here's a picture of the shaved parsnips before I cooked them
just because
they're awesome
