Tonight is a special night at church! We are having a potluck with baptisms tonight, so I had to make something that would work for a potluck. I found the recipe on this product: I made a HUGE pan of macaroni and cheese. I actually had to quadruple this... more

I can’t believe I did this, but I forgot to take a picture of the can of soup I used for the recipe!
