Stock your freezer with gluten free mac n cheese cups
you won't believe how fast and easy that this recipe comes together
Instead of waiting for water to boil every time you or your kids want mac n cheese, let me introduce you to this short cut gluten free and freezer friendly mac n cheese. It uses dressed up boxed mac n cheese, and you won’t miss the gluten. My gluten eating family approves!
For this recipe, I use Jovial white cheddar gluten free mac n cheese. I’ve been gluten free for 15 years, and it took me forever to land on a good pasta that everyone enjoys. I have found Jovial brand to be my family’s favorite after trying what seems like every brand on the market. I also really enjoy their fussili and stelline as well.
Two boxes of Jovial white cheddar gluten free mac n cheese
1/4 cup milk
2 tbl butter
4 oz cheese (2 mixed/2 on top)
2 eggs
Preheat your oven to 350F
Boil your pasta per instructions on the box and drain.
Keeping the pasta in the pot, add your butter and let it melt. Then add your milk and stir in the two dry cheese packets.
Once the mixture is smooth, add two oz of shredded cheese. I used jack cheese. Stir until cheese is melted.
Scramble two eggs in a bowl and add them to the pasta. Stir until mixed.
Add the mac n cheese to silicone muffin tins and sprinkle remaining cheese on top
Bake at 350F for 10 minutes.
Let cool and then freeze. Once frozen, remove from the mold and store in a freezer safe bag.
Buying shredded cheese may not work because it contains cellulose that prevents caking but also makes it hard to melt. I like this rotary cheese grater to make grating blocks of cheese quickly.
My favorite brand of cheese is Organic Valley because, they don’t use bioengineered rennet.
I like to buy my mac n cheese on Thrive Market. I also can find it at Whole Foods and Sprouts. 30% off your first Thrive Market order here.
You can reheat in the microwave. I always find a splash of liquid helps freezer foods. So a dash of milk or water will help!
