monthly macaroni 3

i am beginning to sound like a broken record in that every time i write about a macaroni and cheese the only word i can think of to describe it is absolutely amazing, and i am about to do it again!

i realized a week or so ago that it was nearing the end of the month and i had yet to even think about which macaroni and cheese i was going to make or when would be the best time to make it. that is when i decided to get down to business and narrowed it down to the one entitled creamy macaroni and cheese with spinach. it calls for using gruyere and parmesan cheeses and lots of spinach so it looked very promising. it was not until i began cooking the onion and its sweet carmelized smell filled the kitchen that i knew i would love it. i instantly began anticipating its first taste! (i contemplated just eating the onions out of the pan, but refrained so that i wouldnt mess up the entire dish i was slaving over)

the sauce is very thick, which for me is a good thing because i would gobble down the entire casserole dish if it wasnt. if you are turned off by thicker sauces, this may not be the best recipe for you, but i still feel like everyone should try it because i absolutely loved it!

i ended up eating two servings of it before i was absolutely stuffed and opted for going on an extremely short bike ride to work off a bit of the heaviness and check the mail at the same time.

overall, this may be my favorite macaroni thus far. i know i say that every time and i will probably continue to say it. it just feels absolutely impossible to decide on one! the onion added the absolute perfect flavor that i wanted and the amount of spinach is perfect to break up the noodles. it's a good thing i am looking forward to eating it some more because there is an entire casserole dish sitting in my refrigerator waiting for me! (well, hopefully i will still have some left because i keep nibbling at the leftovers when i walk past)

love.
