Dysfunctional Chef: Mad Men Mac & Cheese
As you probably know (you’d almost have to be dead not to), the season premiere of Mad Men is scheduled for this coming Sunday (check your local listings). In its honor, I am planning a 1960′s themed dinner, which brings me to the best (and I mean the best) mac & cheese recipe ever.
Our Lady of Weight Loss and I first shared it with the world in our book, Our Lady of Weight Loss: Miraculous and Motivational Musings from the Patron Saint of Permanent Fat Removal. Along with this “diet” recipe, are instructions on how to make an Our Lady of Weight Loss Mac and Low Fat Cheese altar. If you don’t have the book, you really ought to seriously consider picking up a copy. Both O, the Oprah Magazine and the New York Times gave the book stunningly good reviews. I digress …
Here is the recipe, which remains a favorite by many an OLWL devotee!
