\"Mac<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

I love my kids, I really do. One of them is the best eater in the world. His palate is so mature he doesn\u2019t like cheap white bread and American cheese. Instead he\u2019d rather have a homemade sourdough with sardines and tomatoes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s the other kid that\u2019s the problem eater. He\u2019s not just picky, but unpredictable. One day certain foods will be his favorite and the next day it\u2019ll make him gag (and this is no exaggeration). There is one exception though: Mac and Cheese (and I\u2019m not talking about the boxed stuff) and he never seems to tire from it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Luckily Mac and Cheese is one of the few items that is shared on the Ven Diagram of food preferences between my two kids. I don\u2019t know about you, but I get a little tired of making the same thing over and over. <\/p>\n\n\n

So when I get a chance to change things up, I\u2019ll take it. We can thank Bill Waterson for today\u2019s inspiration. I recently reread an old Calvin and Hobbes comic where Calvin devours his mom\u2019s dinner only after she said the rice was actually maggots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On today\u2019s lunch menu, we\u2019re going to make the kids\u2019 favorite Mac and Cheese. But this time, we\u2019re going to make a couple tweaks and make a Mac and Cheese brain!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ingredients<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The ingredients below will make 2-4 good sized brains depending on the size of the bowl you use. A pound of pasta can be a lot so feel free to cut this recipe in half. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
