Recipe: Our amazing, delicious, wonderfully scruptious Mac n' Cheese!

Macaroni and Cheese: One of the most ubiquitous and universally adored dishes. Everyone and every region has their own style of preparing it. Some like it thicker, other prefer the loose and gooey. Some prefer vegetables mixed it, while other top it with bread crumbs. They even top hamburgers and pizza with it these days!

The Bahamas also has its own way of preparing this dish. The Bahamian style of mac n' cheese is more thick and casserole-like with tasty peppers and onions for a little pizazz! See the recipe below. It goes best with baked or fried chicken, potato salad, cole slaw, conch salad, and of course, a ice-cold Kalik beer and great company!
