  1. This was suprisingly good. I really expected the kids to like it, but honey and I liked it too. Comfort food to the core. It was funny because while I was making these I was watching the Martha Stewert Show and they were reviewing hotdogs. One of their top choices was a dog covered with mac and cheese. Weird, hugh?! Anyway, my kids insist that we do this again. Yummy! Made for PAC Fall 2008.
