About T.G.I. FRIDAY'S, Mac & Cheese, from kid's menu
Macaroni and cheese, affectionately known as mac and cheese, is a comforting casserole of cooked elbow macaroni bound in a rich, creamy cheese sauce, often based on cheddar. A beloved comfort food especially popular in the United States, it can be a quick stovetop dish, a boxed convenience mix, or a baked casserole with a golden, bubbling top. The classic sauce starts with a butter-and-flour roux enriched with milk and melted cheese, which coats every noodle.
Mac and cheese provides carbohydrates, protein, and calcium, though it also tends to be high in fat, sodium, and calories, making it a hearty indulgence. Endless variations dress it up with breadcrumbs, bacon, lobster, vegetables, or extra cheeses, and it is a favorite side dish at holidays and cookouts as well as a family-friendly main. A baked version develops an irresistible crisp, cheesy crust.
Choose good melting cheeses for the smoothest sauce, and refrigerate leftovers, reheating them gently with a splash of milk to bring back the creaminess.
