Everyone needs a hug when you get into the depths of fall with winter looming, right?! Well, I can’t quite give you all a hug. But the best I can do is give you the ultimate hug in a bowl recipe with this gluten-free mac and cheese. This mac and cheese has four kinds of cheese – because that’s a necessity – plus some broccoli – because we’re pretending to be healthy, and some sausages if you want. Gluten-free mac and cheese is that warm comfort food that some nights you just need. I should also mention that this gluten-free mac and cheese recipe is super easy (especially if you put in the prep work in advance) to make. Whether you’re seeking an easy weeknight meal or a weekend bowl of warmth, I have your back with this gluten-free mac and cheese recipe.
