Gluten Free Dinner Recipes with Horizon Organic Mac and Cheese!

If we took a survey amongst parents of their children’s all time favorite foods, chances are mac and cheese would rank pretty high on the list.  It’s also probably pretty likely that if you’re a busy parent, like most of us, you reach for a box to whip some up more often than not. While mac and cheese from scratch is wonderful… most of the time it just isn’t very practical. That applies to those of us that have kids that can eat it this way of course.

But what about those who don’t?

Parents of children with gluten allergies may find the process of making mac and cheese to be a bit more cumbersome. That’s because they are usually confined to making it from scratch each and every time, in order to factor out the gluten contained in most mac and cheese products.

They don’t have to anymore though!

Horizons NEW Gluten-Free Mac & Cheese brings to the table all of the wonderful ingredients, taste, and convenience of mac and cheese… minus the gluten! No longer do you have to sacrifice taste or time to find the solution to your mac and cheese fix!

I can talk about how good it taste to me all day long, but the true test is what the kids have to say about it…

Mine were thrilled!

We tried the white cheddar cheese mac, and it was absolutely delicious. I made it even more nutritious by adding chicken, bacon and broccoli to the mix! We were left with an awesome blend of mac and cheese, packed just right with protein and veggies!

My kids loved helping to prepare it, and the instructions were just simple enough for them to be able to play a hands on role in the process.  I was excited about this, since I LOVE when my kids can get active in the kitchen. I’ve learned when they help prepare the food, they seem to much more interested in eating it.

    My 4 year old loves to help in the kitchen. We let him help with the mixing and adding things to a pot (before heat is added!).

    Since started trying to eat gluten free I sure have missed mac n cheese. I can’t wait to make this. Now that my son is 18 he runs away from the kitchen. I can never get him to help me.

    I absolutely LOVE that you added to your Mac & Cheese. I’ve never thought of doing that before. I like the Horizion Mac & Cheese – my kids do too.
