Macaroni Cheese

It was a Monday and I knew that there wasn't much in the way of fresh fruit or veg in the fridge and there is no stall on a Monday. I knew I had macaroni in the cupboard and all of the ingredients for cheese sauce. I picked up a leek from a supermarket and when I got home made my comfort food of macaroni with cheese sauce and a leek thrown in for a bit of flavour - lovely!

Macaroni Cheese

Friday night Mr VST offered to take us out for dinner but I just didn't fancy it. I had planned to make beetroot risotto but he couldn't face any more beetroot so after a bit of mooching about trying to come up with ideas we both agreed on a macaroni cheese. 

You can't really go wrong with macaroni cheese. I cooked 200g macaroni (should probably have cooked more as it was swimming in sauce), a batch of cheese sauce made with goat's milk and cow's cheddar and then chopped up a leek and mixed them all together before popping it into the oven with a bit of grated cheese on top. Lovely, Friday night comfort food was just what we both needed.
