I’ve had this Mac and Cheese recipe from Dinner or Dessert pinned to my Mac and Cheese Pinterest Board for a while and I finally got around to making it on Tuesday when my kids were home for a snow day, really an ice day. It’s a very rare treat when we get actual fluffy snow in South Carolina.

Breakfast Mac and Cheese Recipe Tips:

You can change this breakfast Mac and Cheese up to suit your tastes. Use bacon instead of sausage or leave the jalapeno out and substitute monterey jack for the pepper jack if you don’t like your foods spicy. I’ve used Cavatappi pasta, but any pasta shape can be used.

Best eaten the day it is made but leftovers will save for 3 days in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Any day started with mac and cheese is a great day!
