Cheesy Macaroni

The bible tells us that we should give love before we can receive love. I give love in every food I touch.

This beautiful creamy cheesy Macaroni is topped with bread crumbs and with mozzarella cheese. It is not only easy to prepare , it taste amazing. Its absolutely delicious. My kids complimented me on it several times whilst eating. I used Parmesan , cheddar and mozzarella on the topping.

I will say it’s one of the fantastic dinners l have ever made. It took me just 10 mins to put things together and turned up with a fantastic dinner.

You can accompany this dish with any salad of your choice. You never get tired of repeating this recipe again and again.
