I have a customer asking for this PC recipe. Does anyone know it? She says another PC consultant made it and it was one of our recipes???
 
Yes, I believe it's in either the vegetarian cookbook or the make it fresh/healthy cookbook. I remember seeing it just recently.
 
If it's the one I'm thinking of it's http://recipesreallifeoncts.wordpress.com/2011/01/28/quick-and-creamy-mac-n-cheese/. It's on page 111 of 29 Minutes to Dinner Volume 2 and page 49 of Quick Vegetarian Main Dishes or you can click on the name and go to a link I found online for it.

My family loves this recipe! I have found that putting the thawed butternut squash and evaporated milk in the blender before heating it and adding the cheese makes the sauce even creamier and gets rid of any stringy bits from the squash. Your family will never know you are feeding them mac and cheese with vegetables in it if you do that!
