What's your favorite tried-and-true method for making macaroni and cheese at home? My personal favorite is macaroni and cheese made with a large amount of cheddar cheese and thickened with a beurre manie (which is definitely not as hard as it sounds). 'Their Blue Monday mac 'n' cheese has an inch-thick crust of golden breadcrumbs and cheese sitting atop a mountain of blue cheese pasta. 'Forget about their pizza - the mac 'n' cheese is also served straight from their wood-fired oven. Truly the best cheesy carb dish.' Feta cheese is a brined white cheese main from sheep milk or from a mixture of sheep and goat milk. Mac and cheese is my favorite. I've never made it with feta but I bet it tastes great.
