Macaroni and Cheese With Peas

Recipe #298059 | 45 min | 15 min prep | SERVES 6 -8 , 6 -8 servings (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: Chirie

My family loves mac and cheese but since I have found out I am allergic to wheat I have not had much success with it until I came up with this recipe.I have written it out for a family but since my kids have left home now I split it into 2 casseroles and freeze one in a freezer to oven casserole and just take it out of the freezer and pop it into a cold oven. Turn on to 350 degrees farenheight for about 30 minutes and dinners ready.
