Homemade Macaroni and Cheese, worthy of this re-run

Hello Karen. I loved your expression after you added the 1/2 stick of butter😁 … priceless! That Mac & cheese looks delicious! I also learned something new from you about adding the salt after the water begins to boil in order to avoid the salt from pitting the pot. Thank you for your wonderful video.🤗

Yummy, that looks so delicious. Perfect for this snowy day here in Ontario 🇨🇦 Iced tea too, love that no matter the season.

I 100% agree😀 Mac n cheese is always worthy👍👍Karen, I love all the cheeses you used! The half & half makes it richer & creamier. My son made a great Mac n cheese yesterday for dinner. He used 3 separate cheeses, and added broccoli. It was super delicious 😋 Thanks for sharing, always a keeper ❤️😊

Hi Karen!! The Mac and Cheese looked terrific!! Only one thing; it's way too much Cholesterol for me. Maybe in the future when my Cholesterol has come down.

It was all going so well, until you added chilli and drank iced tea (instead of a good old British cuppa) lol

Saw your channel and was drawn in. I believe it was your latest video about being away and health issues. So I said a prayer for you and checked out your channel. Gotta love a good mac and cheese!! I subscribed. I enjoyed watching you. You remind me of my Sister In Law. 😊

Thank you. Welcome to our family. ❤️

To much butter not healthy. Very bad for you

[@ladysmith3578]

I love mac & cheese. And tea. I use loose leaf tea and put it in a coffee filter then I run a coffee pot of water through it and pour it over 3/4 gal of ice. I use 1 pack of Splenda in the whole gallon of tea, just enough to take the bitterness away. Yummy 1/2 stick of butter would be perfect. Thank you again Karen. I’m making beef stew tomorrow. If it turns out I’ll send you the recipe. I’ve not fixed this one before. Love you and Pop.. big hugs. Have a great weekend!❤❤

[@KarenJonesFoodFamily]

Sounds delicious to me. Mac & Cheese should be a food group. 😋 Love ya big ❤️ 😘

[@laurasikes8178]

Hey Miss Karen...quick & easy dish...it looked very creamy...I was thinking you could even do a crumb top like Panko or seasoned bread crumbs mixed with your favorite ingredient...butter! I love your top & the style... thats the kind of tops I like...and I saw Miss Patchy...sweet girl just laying there...I want one of those ice machines ...do yall have Sonic's up there? They have the nugget ice in their drinks...its everybody's favorite here in Texas...ya'll have a good day!

[@KarenJonesFoodFamily]

Great idea with the Panko and of course, butter. 😋 We do have Sonic, I enjoy their hotdogs 🌭 😉 And yes, the nugget ice is great. Thanks for watching. ❤️

Not at all. 😋

[@KarenJonesFoodFamily]

Yes, I just did an update video. Thank you for asking. ❤️

[@violet04nunya98]

I adore macaroni and cheese and I’ve watched a ton of videos of different people making it. I’m going to try yours because I really like how it’s very creamy and doesn’t clump together like there’s not enough liquid or cheese or something. And then the way you talk about it when you’re tasting it makes me want to make a dish of it today!! You’re a joy to watch and I wish I knew you in person. Well done and I’ll be watching more videos from you. Have a blessed day!!! From someone in Southern California. 😘

[@KarenJonesFoodFamily]

Thank you. I hope you'll try it and let me know what you think. ❤️

I was getting so hungry watching all of the cheese in your Mac and cheese, but then when you added the chili, I was definitely hungry! Yum!!!!

Adding the chili just took it up a notch. That's a meal in itself. 😋😋❤️
