It is no secret that I have a weakness for noodles – especially the cheesy varieties. When Tina wrote about this simple recipe for The Laughing Cow Mac N Cheese on Carrots N Cake, I new that I needed to make it. It looked easy, delicious, and relatively healthy. You can find the recipe here.
The recipe is only 5 ingredients, and basically you just cook the noodles and then mix them all together. Pretty darn easy. I wasn’t actually sure if I’d love the flavor since I don’t love swiss cheese, but I did. The creaminess of the swiss mixed with the flavor of the cheddar (which I added a bit extra of) was delicious. It tasted very similar to macaroni and cheese that is made with a roux on the (much more time consuming) stovetop rather than just some cheese and butter mixed together. Just the thing I like in a dinner: easy, delicious, and fairly healthy.
Ease: A, it was a bit harder to mix than I had imagined, but really not too difficult.
Taste: A+, really good….I’m sure the bit of extra cheese that I added helped. 
Would I make it again? I think so. In fact, I actually bought some sun-dried tomato laughing cow to try as well!

Oh darn, I was between the tomato and the garlic and herb! We’ll see how I like it I guess!
Never tried making it with penne! I´m always looking for new mac n cheese variations to try out – this looks delish! thanks!!
I love macaroni and cheese, so you’re definitely in the right spot for new recipes!
I usually just use whatever type of smallish noodle I have on hand, unless the recipe seems like it needs something super specific – but that usually isn’t the case for macaroni and cheese type dishes.
[...] that it was actually much different! The first recipe that I made with this new found cheese was The Laughing Cow Mac N Cheese. No surprise, I loved it. I’ve made it many times since, and for the past few weeks [...]
