Item of the Week–Mac & Cheese

I was thrilled last week to find several great deals on cereal. I hope you stocked up like I did! This week we’re going to keep the Family Favorites category going strong with Macaroni & Cheese. I’m sure there are kids out there who don’t like this, but they are few and far between. It’s nice to have a non-meat option for kids.

While the variety that features pre-made cheese sauce is an abomination, I like to have a few packs on hand for times when I have run out of milk or butter. So I think it’s worthwhile to have both the dry variety and the cheese-pouch variety, just to be prepared.

I think five packs per person (mix up the varieties however you like) would be a great start.

If you aren’t mac & cheese fans (or maybe you have gluten issues), consider some of the packaged rice dinners. Some of them are pretty tasty.
