Boxed mac and cheese is a favorite among children of all ages, but what about grownups? When you grow up, while the flavor of boxed mac and cheese is nostalgic, it lacks a certain spice that adults are accustomed to. The turmeric and garlic powder add that spice, goat cheese adds creaminess, and almond milk adds nuttiness. Go ahead, pick up that boxed mac and cheese like you did as a kid, but step it up a notch with this easy meal recipe.
