Tired of serving a regular box of macaroni and cheese to your family
How about you pep it up with this peppy macaroni recipe?
Growing up we would have this at least once a week maybe once every two weeks it was a staple in my household. The other day I said why don’t we have Peppy Mac? Hadn’t had it in years and man did it take me back.
I wanted to share the recipe in case you had not heard of it and would like to try it
