GLUTEN-FREE MACARONI AND CHEESE
]It seems sometimes there are only two choices with macaroni and cheese: Make it from scratch with a roux and slow-simmered cheese sauce, or tear open a box and make it in minutes. It turns out you don't have to choose between quality and convenience. This quick method uses goat cheese, aged white Cheddar and gluten-free pasta. Throw in some dark lacinato kale and you have a complete meal in about 25 minutes.

Steps:
- Cook the macaroni. Set a large pot of salted water over high heat. (Add enough salt to the water to make it taste like the ocean.) Bring the water to a boil. Add the macaroni. Stir for at least 1 minute to make sure the pieces do not stick together. Set the timer for 8 minutes.
- Set up the sauce. While the pasta is boiling, put the goat cheese, Cheddar and kale in the bottom of a large, wide bowl.
- Finish the dish. When the macaroni is tender but still has a bite (al dente), remove it from the pot with a Chinese spider or slotted spoon. Put it on top of the cheese and kale. Pour in about 1/3 to 1/2 cup of the water the macaroni cooked in. Let everything sit for 5 minutes. Stir the mixture until the macaroni is coated in a creamy sauce, with kale dotted through it.
Tips:
- Use a good quality gluten-free pasta. There are many different brands and types of gluten-free pasta available, so it's important to find one that you like the taste and texture of.
- Cook the pasta according to the package directions. Most gluten-free pastas will take a little longer to cook than regular pasta, so be sure to adjust the cooking time accordingly.
- Make sure the cheese sauce is thick and creamy. The best way to do this is to use a combination of different cheeses, such as cheddar, mozzarella, and Parmesan. You can also add a little bit of cornstarch or flour to help thicken the sauce.
- Don't overcook the macaroni and cheese. Once the cheese sauce is melted and the pasta is cooked through, remove it from the heat and serve immediately.
- Serve the macaroni and cheese with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings include bacon, breadcrumbs, and chopped parsley.
