This is a family favorite that I learned from my Mom. It has been passed down and I am sure it has changed over the years, but everyone that has it loves it. I use it anytime I need a nice side dish in a pinch!! The left overs reheat nicely and never stick around more than a day or so! I tend to cook by sight, so I did my best to approximate the measurements. I like to make this with fried chicken, grilled salmon, pork roast,etc with a fresh salad or veggie. It really is a versatile dish that leaves you free to tend to your main dish or dessert prep!!

I tasted this while vacationing with MD's family when MD made this specially for us. It is super easy to prepare and makes a perfect sidedish to bbq meats or as a main dish for kids. I liked the creamy flavor of the sauce (it can be made thicker by adding more cheese or less cream). Recipe makes a large batch. I loved it as leftovers (and had it for breakfast and lunch).

I had the pleasure of tasting this dish made by the chef herself. My picky family and I LOVED IT! My boys thought they would only eat M&C from a box, but this recipe was the BEST homemade or any restaurant style M&C we ever tasted. Nice creamy and not too cheesy. Perfect! I will definitely make this for my family. Thank you MD for making this for my family and giving me another recipe to enjoy. {{{HUGS}}} ~V
(P.S. sorry the photo didn't turn out so great, I'll make it again and post another one for you)

Left out the onions (personal taste pref), and added more cheese (who can go wrong with more cheese?!) and this was very good!! Even good warmed up 
Nice and easy to put together!

I made this dish for a group of hungry college students and they loved it! It was really creamy and did not taste like processed cheese at all. LOVED IT!
