Chipotle Mac & Cheese

I figured now is the perfect time to share this recipe, before all of those resolutions kick in!  Although, I must say....there are MANY mac & cheese recipes out there that would do a lot more damage "calorie-wise"!

The funny thing is, typically I am SO NOT a fan of mac & cheese!  I didn't really grow up on loads of it....I can't say the boxed version was one of the first things I learned how to make, it just was never my "thing".  It's not that I won't eat it, I just don't seek it out...and it is especially not something I would see a recipe of, and say "oh man, I have to have mac & cheese this week".  For some strange reason though, the second I came across this recipe for Spicy, Smoky Chipotle Mac & Cheese on Kristin's blog {w/ milk and sugar}.... I just knew I would love it, and I had to make it.  It did not disappoint, AT ALL!  Hubby is still talking about it... he says "it needs to be on the rotation"!  I know I have said it before and I'll say it again...check out Kristin's blog, she is all about cooking/baking, decorating, and crafting...all of my favorite things.  Thanks so much  for sharing Kristin!  :)
