Spicy Mac & Cheese Recipe w/Bacon, Chorizo & Jalapeños

After many attempts to replicate mac & cheese my boyfriend had at a restaurant, we’ve found the perfect combination of ingredients. If you’re a fan of spicy, you might like this too! My starting point for this recipe was Small Town Woman’s bacon chicken sausage macaroni and cheese recipe.

You can use whatever sausage you like, though we like chorizo best. Today I made it with hot Italian sausage since chorizo was out of stock, and it wasn’t as good. We’ve also made it with other pasta shapes and different cheeses. You can alter this to suit your taste for spice! It takes about an hour from start to finish, and goes faster if you have someone to help.

14 Recipes Your Family Will Love

14 homemade recipes your family will love

Years ago, I contributed to several other websites. For some reason, at that time I didn’t want to venture too far out of cloth diapers on this site, so it was nice to branch out elsewhere. When I was working more, it became too stressful to keep up and write a new post for each site on a regular basis, so I bowed out of most. My posts on A Nation of Moms, my posts on Outnumbered 3-1 and my posts on Kelly Wels are still there and I see some of them repinned regularly (especially the vanilla cream cheese pancakes below)!

Homemade Marshmallows (don’t laugh!)

>

OK, you can laugh.  Only if you’re laughing with me though!  You may be wondering why on earth I would do this.  Well, ever since we tried the ricemellow creme, I’ve been wondering if I could make marshmallows with brown rice syrup.  We really enjoy roasting marshmallows on a campfire when the weather is warm, and making s’mores.  However, I’m not crazy about the #1 ingredient being corn syrup.  Our organic market has some “gourmet” vegan vanilla marshmallows, but they still contain corn syrup (and they cost a small fortune).

Making yogurt without a yogurt maker A.K.A. Crock Pot Yogurt

I looked at yogurt makers a few years ago, but dismissed the idea because of the cost and space issue, as well as mixed reviews.  When I saw this blog post about making yogurt in your crock pot, I knew I had to try it.  We go through tons of the stuff.  We eat it plain, with a little fruit, or with a drizzle of agave nectar.  It’s the only thing my son will eat with gusto!
