Gourmet Gastronomer Mac and Cheese Off

After weeks of hard work, the first ever Gourmet Gastronomer Mac and Cheese Off has now officially started. This is the most diverse collection of Mac and Cheeses that I have ever seen. Low budget to gourmet, classic to new age, swiss, Velveeta, gouda, Mexican, Italian, Greek and more. I knew there were many ways to make Mac and Cheese, but I never thought I would get 9 entries that were so radically different from each other.

Please vote on the Mac and Cheese entry that you find most delicious. Look at the pictures, look at the ingredients, look at the stories, and try to figure out which one you would enjoy most. The winner of the contest will get the Grand Prize, which is a Cheese Making Kit from the New England Cheesemaking Supply Company.

Make sure you check out the bios of all the contestants.

Absoulutely agree with adding

Absoulutely agree with adding velveeta. I know a lot of people are dead set against this processed cheese but indeed does make the mac & cheese creammier.

So I have danny's macncheese

So I have danny's macncheese cook off for one of the most tasty meals I've cooked in awhile. The boyfriend and I were grocery shopping for dinner the night of my first day checking out danny's website, as he so smartly picked up a package of smoked fontina something in the back of my head clicked and macncheese making was proposed. Being a southern boy, his eyes lit up. So none of the ingredients are interesting enough to be a contest recipe- black pepper-filled smoked fontina cream sauce on top of pasta w/ bacon and mozz., topped with sourdough croutons (cooked in the bacon grease, obviously)and parm baked up nice. But alas, very much good enough for me to owe danny a thankyou!
