Lisa's Basic Mac and Cheese Repost

Today wasn't the greatest of days -- cold, icky, a bit wet. Time for some comfort food -- what could be more comforting than mac 'n' cheese? Below is my basic recipe for mac 'n' cheese, and I'll post variations on it later. 1 lb medium shells or macaroni (regular or gluten-free) 8 oz natural cheese (cheddar, Monterey Jack, Colby/Jack, etc) or plant-based versions 8 oz Velveeta (or other processed cheese product -- you can also use cream cheese, but it doesn't melt as well as Velveeta) or plant-based cream cheese 6-8 oz light sour cream or plain nonfat Greek yogurt or plant-based sour cream Non-fat cooking spray (or butter if you don't care about calories ;) 1.

Cream Cheese and Olive with Ranch Sandwich Spread Repost

My mother (from Virginia, not Texas) used to make this every summer, but I added ranch dressing as a twist to this recipe. Enjoy! Ingredients: 8 oz cream cheese (either regular or plant-based) 4 oz green olives with pimientos, sliced 4 oz ripe olives (optional) 2-2-1/2 tbsp mayonnaise (either regular or plant-based) 1/2 tbsp ranch dressing (homemade or store-bought) Preparation time: 15 min Directions: 1. Cut the cream cheese in smaller pieces, put into a medium bowl, and allow it to soften about 10 minutes. 2. Add the olives, mayonnaise, and ranch dressing to the cream cheese. 3. Stir until thoroughly mixed. 4. Allow to chill about 30 minutes. 5. Serve with bread or toast. Serves 4. Note: I've had to give up dairy due to allergies, so I've tried this with plant-based cream cheese, and it works just as well. Other seasoning variations may include buffalo sauce, Sriracha, za'atar, Italian seasoning, lemon pepper. You choose what you like!
