The Salad Ingredient That Elevates Boring Boxed Mac And Cheese
By Jessica Fleming-Montoya
The easiest way to get the gooey goodness of mac and cheese is to whip it up from a box, but for a little extra edge to this dish, Caesar dressing is what you need.
Caesar dressing gets its distinct flavor from garlic and anchovies. These unique tasting notes will transfer well into your classic mac and cheese dish.
When you add the dressing to your boxed mac and cheese, you'll notice that these savory, garlicky, and tangy notes shine through and complement the cheese sauce.
You can either use store-bought Caesar salad or you can whip up a homemade batch. Just note that the flavors of the condiment can vary slightly depending on which kind you use.
The dressing will also add extra creaminess to your finished mac and cheese and may even soften its neon orange color.
