This take on the beloved American dish, mac 'n' cheese, is especially popular at Paula Deen restaurants and is surprisingly simple to prepare. Hot macaroni and cheese are tossed with grated cheddar and a creamy sauce, then baked in the oven until the sauce melds with the cheese and macaroni. If you prefer an even more gooey casserole, feel free to sprinkle more cheddar on top of the mac 'n' cheese. You can never have too much cheese when it comes to macaroni.
