Baked mac & cheese was one of the main course meals my mother made for
us. That or scalloped or au gratin potates. It was dinner.

My mom used to add cut up 'Lil' Smokies' sausages to the macaroni &
cheese. Sometimes cooked ground beef. She was trying to stretch the
meal to feed five people. She grew up during the Depression so that's
just what she did. <shrug>

I do love baked mac & cheese. I'll take it even without anything
added.. but it must have buttered breadcrumbs sprinkled on the top.
