happy friday's mac n' cheese n' butternut squash recipe ;)


while oliver and i are in hibernation mode...
allie cat went in and out approximately 11 times today.
it's cold tonight...
and elsie is on the hill.
silly girl.
just like her mama at that age.



i started to write this out a few times... in the end decided a quick photo would do the job.(click on the photo to enlarge it)
now, i made a few changes from the recipe,
because i always do...
i did 4 cups of uncooked macaroni.
i cooked a frozen pack of butternut squash.
i used marble and mozzarella...
and probably more than a cup each.
i did not use the cayenne...black pepper instead.
also, i used plain breadcrumbs and ground flax seed on top.

no one knew it was squash...
they guessed the flax seed though.
it was very creamy, buttery and cheesy.

good luck!
