Is there anything better than a bowl of warm, creamy mac and cheese? No matter the season, it’s the ultimate comfort food. The best part is that it’s a simple recipe that can be adapted to your needs. If you’re currently going plant-based, you can swap out the ingredients used for the creamy bechamel sauce for another milk-free alternative. You can make it as spicy as you want it or you add in veggies for added nutritional value. When it comes to versatility, the beauty of this dish is that it can be a whole meal or just a great side dish for a buffet or bigger event.

But it can be tough to get this dish to the restaurant-level quality, as it requires some substitutions to make it taste just as good as the stuff you pay for.

Watch how professional chef Lish Steiling helps you unlock the secret to making the restaurant-style macaroni and cheese you love at home. Learn the techniques necessary to raise your game with this comfort food classic to professional levels of gooey, cheesy goodness.
