Macaroni and Cheese with Artichokes

Do you have a recipe for macaroni and cheese with artichokes? 
-Linda 

Hello again Linda!
While I don’t have a macaroni and cheese recipe that specifically includes artichokes, I think that sounds wonderful!  There’s no reason you couldn’t add some artichokes to my Traditional Macaroni and Cheese recipe, or to my Two-Cheese Macaroni recipe.  You can use either fresh steamed artichoke hearts, frozen, thawed artichoke hearts or canned artichoke hearts (make sure in any case that you pat them dry first, otherwise they can thin out the cheese sauce).  Fold them into the cheese sauce with the macaroni and bake as directed for a gourmet take on a classic comfort food.  I do hope you try it and let me know how it turns out!

    Do you have a recipe for any zucchini desserts? I think my mom tried zucchini in a pie instead of apple and it tasted just like apple. I have a recipe for bread, but that is it. Thanks, --Anishka

    Hi Betty. I have a recipe that calls for Butavan flavoring or butter vanilla flavoring. What can I use instead? I can't find these in the store in my town. Thank you. --Louise
