Easy Sausage Pierogi Bake by Patti Fisher

Ken wanted macaroni and cheese made meaty with sausage. Patti had an “aha” moment because frozen pierogies are something we always have on hand, plus Ken just cold smoked lots of our favorite kinds of cheese.

Seriously Easy Lasagne with Spinach by A.L. Wiebe

I was given a version of this recipe years ago, but it called for the use of commercial pasta sauce, which I don't usually care for. I have jars of homemade bolognese sauce that I prefer, but use whatever kind of sauce you like, and remember, this is supposed to be EASY on the cook.

Southwestern Mac & Cheese, we have to laugh, of all the recipes we get asked for from gourmet to down home, what we get the most requests for is macaroni and cheese.

Butternut Squash Mac & Cheese by Toby Corn

This is a redo of a Cooking Light recipe "Creamy, Light Mac & Cheese". Since I'm dealing with lactose intolerant family members, I've made adjustments to accomodate them (fyi - the gruyere and Parmesan cheeses I'm using are both lactose free.) I've also added Tofutti Tofu Sour Cream instead of the yogurt and upped the oil a bit - the…
