Ultimate Macaroni & Cheese Casserole

School’s back in session and so is our routine. My daughters wanted to sign up for so many after school activities that by the time we get home to do homework, we’re all exhausted. Making dinner has turned into a marathon where I’ve been learning that fast doesn’t necessary mean bland.

Since I love cooking from scratch, this macaroni and cheese casserole is the perfect weeknight meal that requires about 20 minutes to make from start to finish without using powders or comes from a box. After you see how easy it is, you will never buy boxed macaroni and cheese again.

The secret for this casserole is the use of Crema Mexicana, which gives it that creamy texture and speeds up the Béchamel Sauce. Also, the Cacique® Oaxaca cheese is super easy to shred and melts beautifully. I add some more cheese on top and broil it so the top browns, while the bottom stays creamy.
