Creamy macaroni and cheese from The Homesick Texan's Family Table: Lone Star Cooking from My Kitchen to Yours by Lisa Fain

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

  • averythingcooks on March 01, 2026

    With heavy cream to use up, I deviated from my usual roux based mac & cheese recipes to make 1/3 of this recipe to serve 2. I replaced the bacon with chopped ham (our preference) & stole an idea from her other book, adding chopped roasted poblanos. It was a bit loose for our liking, so I transferred it to a little baking dish, added a buttery breadcrumb topping & put it in the oven to thicken /crisp the top. Verdict = delicious! AND questions re: why I didn't make more :)
