FRIED Mac & Cheese ?!

I did it... I actually FRIED some leftover mac&chz yesterday.
I don't have the pics, but I got the recipe off of food network, when I searched "how to doctor up leftover mac & cheese" .
Alton Brown calls it, "Next Day Macaroni & Cheese"

It was crispily goodness.

Recipe Tree

I participated in a "Recipe Tree" through email last week.
I sent out a recipe & forwarded the idea to several friends who in turn emailed me recipes & the others received them, too!
It was fun... I liked it a lot... hearing from ones that I don't really even know, but who sent great recipes... out of the 7 recipes that I rec'd so far, 3 have been for Mac & Cheese!! lol

The email looks like this, if you want to start one: *(cut & paste into your email, then send to 20 friends)

1. friendsname@email.com
2. otherfriendsname@email.com


Please send a recipe to the person whose name is listed in the number 1 position above (even if you don't know them, I do!) and it should preferably be something quick, easy and without rare ingredients.

Actually, the best one is one you know in your head and can type out and send right now.

Then, copy this letter into a new e-mail, move my name to the number 1 position and put your name in the number 2 position. Only my name and your name should show when you send your e-mail. Send to 20 friends.

If you cannot do this within 5 days, let me know so it will be fair to those participating.

You should receive 36 recipes. It's fun to see where they come from!

Seldom does anyone drop out because we can all use new recipes.

The turnaround is fast because only 2 names are on the list.
Thanks for participating!
