Guess what?

Looks good, huh? ;)

Some of you regular readers might remember the "mac n cheese" I made before. This is a twist on the recipe...I had some ham (rosette, actually) and chorizo that had been sitting in the fridge for a while, so I decided to finish both of them up with a variation of mac n cheese. Since the chorizo was already spicy, I omitted the black pepper in my mac n cheese recipe, and on the top I put the two slices of rosette and covered up the top of the bowl with (leftover) raclette cheese.

What really surprised me was how the colour of the dish turned red after baking...the oil from the chorizo coloured it so well! But this dish is less healthy than the "basic" mac n cheese, I guess...because of the chorizo, after eating I found the bottom of my bowl really oily!

And I've found that putting a layer of raclette cheese on top prevents the pasta from drying up too much! (I think it's a problem only when you're using a microwave like I am) I'm using grated emmental cheese for the rest, by the way...it was the only grated cheese (in small packets) that I could find. lol
