(as of Nov 01, 2024 12:13:08 UTC - Details)

Creamy, cheesy, rich, and comforting, macaroni and cheese is the favorite side dish for all generations! From classics with various cheeses to more exotic fare -- with lobster, vegetables, pancetta, beef, and many more combinations -- this timeless standard deserves a second look.

Consider the Goat Cheese and Boursin Mac and Cheese, Chesapeake Crab Mac and Cheese, or Mac and Cheese Soufflee; with Country Ham for a dinner party, a book club meeting, or a holiday side dish. Start with Mac and Cheese Canapes or Mac and Cheese Spring Rolls, and then have Grand Marnier Orzo Pudding or Macaroni with Pecan Caramel Mascarpone for a sweet dessert!

Author Ellen Brown has collected and developed more than 80 recipes, most of which are adapted from beloved dishes from restaurants around the country like Red Rooster in New York, Nosh in Dallas, and The Tipsy Pig in San Francisco. Recreate your favorite cheesy restaurant dishes at home: the sky's the limit for the humble mac & cheese.

Title: Great cooking book
Review: I was given a hard copy by a friend for my birthday and all the recipes have been such a hit at our dinner and a movie night that I got it on Kindle so I would have it when I am visiting my family as they have asked me to make recipes out of there. As my friend who gave me the book has stated, it was the gift that keeps on giving. I haven't made EVERY recipe yet, but I would say that I have made almost half of them. The first time I make a recipe I make it just like the book says (very rare for me but my husband and friends are telling me I need to reproduce what I make) and everyone turned out perfect. I have a large collection of cooking books and hate it when you follow the recipe and it doesn't turn out or you get half way through the recipe and discover they left out something.

Title: Fun and Fantastic Recipes.
Review: I decided to purchase this cookbook after I saw it featured on one of my favorite cooking blogs. A cookbook that had over 80 different takes on my favorite food caught my eye immediately.This book has several recipes, ranging from classic to more modern takes on everyone's favorite comfort food. It's definitely for the more adventurous chef. My boyfriend, who likes more classic recipes, thought many of these versions were a little too creative for his taste.I would recommend this cookbook to everyone who enjoys macaroni and cheese, and isn't afraid of a little adventure!

Title: MAC & CHEESE by Ellen Brown
Review: With winter coming this is the perfect book to bridge the weather. First of all, I like to prepare in advance and these are the best recipes for the compulsively prepared cook. You can have all of the ingredients in the house, prep the recipe when you feel like it and cook it right before company comes. Now, I know that some cooks use "mac & cheese" as a appetizer, but I think that these flavorful and satisfying dishes are really the centerpiece of the meal. Put a salad next to it and some fruit after and you have created a really elegant meal, with no fuss, no anxiety and great panache. This is a great book for busy cooks who want ELEGANT AND DELICIOUS results.

Title: Seafood Elevates Mac and Cheese to a Dinner for Guests
Review: Another Ellen Brown Cookbook and after Scoop, the definitive ice cream cookbook, I had to buy this too!I bought it the week before I was having a dinner party, and after trying a few of the dises I knew it was a winner.The recipes are all clearly written, and she includes so much good information about cooking in general that I know I'm becoming a better cook for reading it. Lobster with mac and cheese - how could I miss? And I didn't, everyone loved it and wanted the recipe. I was surprised how little lobster it required for such a deeply satisfying taste. It gets five stars hands down. Now I can't wait to try the hors d'oeuvers. Yummy!

Title: Amazing selection of creative recipes and lists of cheeses and their properties, as well as desserts.
Review: Amazing recipes, and they have a section for desserts made with Orzo...Definitely a winner if you like to be creative with Mac and cheese, and it gives a run down of the different cheeses and their properties so you can get even more creative if you'd like.

Title: Imaginative
Review: If you like comfort food you have come to the right place.Hard to get bored flipping through these recipes, this is way past the blue box and some Velveeta =)As cookbooks go, it is not a stunning piece of design but it is functional and tells you what you need to know. I appreciate that the recipes are not unnecessarily complex. We are talking mac cheese so it shouldn't be...Giving it a 4 only because I don't want to communicate that this is an absolute must have. Here's the real key - IMO you have to like to play with upscale ingredients to enjoy it,

Title: Simply the Best!
Review: I bought this book after listening to our local, food expert and author Marilyn Harris (WKRC--Cincinnati). She claims, and I agree, that this book represents the best treatise on the topic likely ever written. When I set a recipe in motion, I follow it carefully and once I repeat the same recipe, I might change a few things the next time. After having completed several of these recipes, I learned there simply is nothing to be changed! Give this to the cook in your life and be prepared for a great return on your investment!

Review: I like this cookbook a lot especially since my son hates Kraft Dinner. It will give me a chance to show him how yummy mac and cheese can be.
