The mac and cheese covered in white cheddar cheese curds and a creamy aged cheddar sauce is made even better with the option of adding spicy beef, chicken, and buffalo shrimp. You could get even wilder and go for the popular deep-fried mac and cheese bites appetizer.

Diner Deluxe

Made with Quebec cheese curds, cheddar cheese, basil bread crumb, and served with garlic bread, it’s hard to think of ways to improve this dish.
