Three-Cheese Mac & Cheese

Meet your new signature Mac & Cheese: tender noodles baked in a sinfully creamy three-cheese sauce rich with nutty Parmesan Cheese, smooth-melting Cheddar Cheese and velvety Stella® Fontinella® Cheese, subtly infused with smoked bacon. Served blanketed with a toasted Parmesan-parsley-thyme crust for an authentic homestyle presentation.

Kitchen Tips

  • Comfort food is always a popular choice of consumers, and is even harder to resist when it’s made more indulgent. Add lobster to upscale or blackened chicken for a mainstream rendition.
