How many recipes can turn out as failures before I run screaming?? Hmm? Any idea?

Yeah, it’s been one of THOSE WEEKS.
I don’t know if it was the atmospheric pressure, the humidity or I just wasn’t holding my mouth right (this is ALWAYS my brother’s reason for something not working the first time!).

I had three GREAT (I knew thought) recipes I was working on and EVERY. SINGLE. ONE failed to meet my standards for the blog.
One tasted fantastic, but fell in the middle!! The next one looked like a glob, but tasted really good and the chocolate one looked ok, but was as chewy as a rubber ball!! Urggghhh!

I refuse to give up on creating but at this point I need some help HELP!

Enter comfort food!!

Homemade Gluten Free Mac And Cheese

Of course, I have several dishes I seek comfort by consuming; I mean what can’t be improved by chocolate, chocolate chip cookies or MAC and CHEESE?
In a word, nothing.

Homemade Gluten Free Mac And Cheese

So let’s go with mac and cheese with all that cheesy flavor, stringy warm deliciousness and the soft, soothing texture…win-win-WIN!

And to make this mac and cheese even more perfect: gluten free AND slow cooker!!

Even though my emotions are telling me I want a big ole bowl right now, some things are just better if you have to wait on them. And this is one of those dishes.

Although it is a slow cooker recipe, it will be ready in less than four hours, so a perfect lunch time dish on the weekend (or week day). I’m thinking perfect dish for the kids in the summertime for lunch.

Cheese

I love switching up the basic flavor. Sometimes I make it using cheddar cheese or gouda or even pepper jack cheese to stimulate the tastebuds and conversation: ‘Man, are you sure this is mac and cheese?’ ‘ or ‘Wow, a little spicy tonight huh?’ ‘Man, what is this flavor, it tastes a little strong, but I LIKE it! Way to go mom!’ Thank you, thank you very much; just a little something I whipped up for my loved ones.

Homemade

Yeah, now that I’ve eaten a bowlful some of this fantastic gluten free mac and cheese, I will head back to my mixing bowls, cake pans, oven and let the magic begin (again!).
