Mac & Cheese Pizza

Mac and Cheese Pizza is a thing of pure beauty. You take one look at its golden, bubbling, cheese-smothered surface, and you are engulfed in awe. Could such a wonder really exist?  Or is it merely a mirage created from your most spectacular fantasy?

Pinch yourself, and pick your jaw up off the floor. This pizza is more than mere fantasy; it’s 4-cheese reality. That’s right: two super foods have united in this force of starchy, cheesy goodness. I don’t know about you, but in my mind, there are no foods greater than pizza and mac and cheese. What could possibly be better than enjoying them together in the most harmonious hybrid ever created?

If you love comfort foods (who doesn’t?), this is the king of them all. It’s creamy mac and cheese, baked until bubbly perfection, all atop a convenient, crispy crust. Let’s be honest: when there’s a delicious-looking pot of mac and cheese sitting in front of you, do you want to pick up a fork and eat civilly, or do you want to dig in with nothing but your bare hands? Okay…maybe it’s just me, but I prefer the latter.

Let’s talk about the mac. We ain’t putting no boxed, store-bought, mactrosity* on top of a pizza crust. We’re making a darn good, homemade mac with fresh cheese and fragrant garlic (it is a pizza, after all). The sauce is creamy, rich, and plentiful. You can’t skimp on the sauce here since one: we’re making a pizza (which has sauce), and two: you’ve got to balance out the starch. Moreover, this mac has tons of flavor from the garlic, onion, and a secret dash of hot sauce. You’ll be tempted to eat it straight out of the pot, sans crust. But then you’ll bake it atop the fluffy crust with an additional sprinkle of gooey cheese, and you’ll be glad you waited.

This ain’t your ordinary pizza. It’s a fun spin that kids and adults alike will love. With a sea of creamy sauce, four kinds of gooey cheese, tender pasta, and a crisp yet fluffy crust, this is what dreams are made of. So grab a little slice of heaven and indulge.
