This weekend I was the lucky recipient of Sam’s culinary experiments again. On Saturday she made macaroni and cheese. Her goal was to compete with Beechers, but her ingredients ended up a bit different and influenced the taste to go in another direction. It was still great but I’d have to put it in a different “mood” category for mac n’ cheese. This was more flavorful, whereas Beechers is more smooth. I think I enjoyed it more though as I could mix it up the way I like it (MORE CHEESE SAUCE) and I wasn’t stuck with penne (Beechers only serves mac n’ cheese with penne).
For lunch on Saturday Sam cooked steaks to perfection and served them with grilled mushrooms and angel hair pasta (and more cheese sauce from the night before). Not only did I get to eat this for lunch on Saturday, but I’ll eat it for lunch every day this week (minus the steak).
