One of my favorite cooking terms is ROUX (ROO). I just love the way is sounds and I have watched many cooks on Food Network start sauces and soups with this technique. I decided it was time to tackle making a sauce starting with a roux. I saw Rachael Ray make Mac and Cheese with Chicken and Broccoli and thought it looked like a good place to start. Last night I made my first roux and it was really easy and the Mac and Cheese was super delicious.
If you like Mac and Cheese as much as I do then I would recommend this recipe. Mac and Cheese is definitely one of my comfort foods, especially on a cold winter day. I usually make box Mac and Cheese because it is quick and easy, but this recipe was definitely better. I was surprised at how quick and easy it was. The only problem was it generated a lot of dirty dishes, but that's what kids and husbands are for...Right??

We love homemade mac & cheese too. I love my moms recipe for homemade mac and now I will have to give yours a try.
This recipe looks yummy. I think we will try it out and see how it compares to my recipe from Cooking Light. Love the name you chose for your sweet baby girl and all the cute clothes. We continue to pray for you both and wish the best for you and your future family.
