Southern Ladys Mac and Cheese

Southern Lady's Mac and Cheese is full of Southern comfort. This easy recipe would be a great side dish to bring to a potluck or as a hearty casserole for a family dinner. It's made with elbow macaroni noodles, a simple homemade cheese sauce, and refrigerated biscuits that bubble up when baked. You'll love the down-home flavors like sharp Cheddar cheese and buttery biscuits. While this makes an excellent side dish for any occasion, it's substantial enough to stand on its own. To serve as a main dish, pair with a fresh salad or green vegetable.

This is, hands down, one of the best mac and cheese recipes I've ever tried. I loved the biscuits that were tucked into the creamy goodness. The biscuits added a really great buttery flavor that I couldn't get enough of. This is definitely my new go-to comfort food.

You'd think with the biscuits that the dish would be on the dry side, but it was still a good consistency. I would recommend a little black pepper or crushed red pepper, but i put pepper on everything. ;)

The biscuits in this dish were the best surprise! They added a great, unexpected sweet touch to the creamy mac and cheese. Yum!

This mac and cheese smelled AMAZING when it came out of the oven! I can't believe there are biscuits in it!
