I shred all my cheeses, finally bought a manual grinder a lady I follow used one was in her Amazon store and let me tell you OMG Finally after all my years she was spot on with the perfect grinder
I’ve renamed your videos . I call them waking up with Karen. It’s usually 3:30-4:30 am when I’m watching you. It’s 4:15 now. I’m going to enjoy my coffee and my time watching you cook yet another delicious meal. Thank you… Love mac & cheese. ♥️
You little smiley faces are so cute when you pop them in your videos. Love Mac & cheese and I can just imagine how tasty that dish is. I enjoy the Eckrich Smoked sausage with it also. I usually make Mac & cheese when I make chili so that at some point during the week I make a casserole of that combo. Yum....Sounds like a great idea for this week. Y'all have a Blessed weekend.
Wow ! Am going make that today on this very cold snowy day here in st paul mn , that mac & cheese will be so delicious with leftover meatloaf , yum , that's oh and going make sweet tea too and watch a nice movie , thanks so much , awesome!! , 😃 😺❤❤❤
Wow, what a lovely idea about putting chili on top; it looks delicious. I was surprised that you did not put an egg in to bind the mac and cheese together. Outside of your mac and cheese looking delicious, it may be more heart conscious. I will give it a try. Thank you
Love the pretty blue top & it looks so nice on you. Blue is your color. Macaroni & Cheese looks delicious. BBQ Pulled Pork would be very good on top also.
Hi there Karen, I just want to say : Thank you- for always answering all comments & being faithful w/ putting new videos up- not to mention your delicious menus. I think a lot of people who are on hear forget there subscribers u don’t! I respect u so much! Thanks again ❤& prayers PS. Forgot to tell you from the last time you wore a nice looking blouse! ❤️ the colors. Have a wonderful weekend!
Thank you so much. I really try to answer all, if nothing else, just by liking the comment. Sometimes I miss some. Thank you for being a friend to me through my channel. Loves and hugs ♥️
Best Mac n cheese of my life was Mrs Martin's in grade school... Made with "commodity" cheese AKA American cheese given out in the 60's as food supplement
I appreciate that you give rationals for teaching. Not just “ add salt for your macaroni after water boiling, if you don’t the salt will pit your pot”. Thank you. Waving to you from Michigan. Thanks also for the tea method and the Mac & cheese
That's right, Mrs. Karen -- you have to have the butter for sure in macaroni & cheese!! I've never had Colby Jack in my Mac & Cheese. I may consider using that the next time I make some. I love topping my baked Mac & Cheese with sharp cheddar & mozzarella.
Oh my Goodness Karen!! I just died and went to ALABAMA!! I made your Mac& cheese and oh Yum Yum Yum!!🤗😋 I love Mac & cheese but all the ones I’ve made from other recipes are tooo dry but yours -so moist and CHEESY! Thank you for sharing- gotta go my MAC& CHEESE is calling!! Virginia in Arkansas
Hi Miss Karen. I know that's some good macaroni. I think I'll make it. The best thing about it is the different cheeses you used and not stingy with the cheese.😊😊
Your macaroni and cheese looks just the way I like it! I like it creamy. My Mom always put eggs in it and it was always dry. I make mine just like you do, but I only use Velveeta. I know a lot of people don't like Velveeta, but it melts soooo good! I am going to try your recipe with different cheeses. i KNOW I will love it! Thanks for a great recipe!
And it’s nice to plant a potful of mint to have in your homemade iced tea. Don’t plant it in the ground because it will take over your whole yard,,,so plant just a pot of it to have that nice mint flavor in your warm weather cold drinks.
You can't go wrong with delicious mac 'n cheese, and yours looks wonderful!! What a great addition to add the chili and onion on top!! Definitely going to try this. Looks soooo incredibly delicious. I wanted a bite so badly! lol
Yummy yummy 😋 we love home made mac\cheese that just look so good Karen and I think that maybe we will try it on the weekend,sweet lady hope all is well with you& your's hi to Paul for me. And you both have a great weekend,❤️😋💐🙏😇 god bless !!!Norlinda
Make it at home. If you don't drink sweet tea, I suggest using just a little sugar.bi used to use about 2 cups of sugar to a gallon of tea. I can't do that anymore. 😉❤️😋
@@KarenJonesFoodFamily that is way too much sugar, I’m thinking sweet tea might be too sweet for me!😜my husbands cousin tries to order when he comes here and they don’t know what he’s talking about. I said Lonnie this isn’t the south.
Looks delish Karen... I now want mac and cheese. When I make boxed mac and cheese I use mayo instead of butter and sour cream instead of milk... I wonder how sour cream would taste in place of your half and half.
Karen, that's a real fine dish of mac n cheese! It's a meal itself; good at any time during the day or night (at work), and it's always easy to digest. I like to use lots of black pepper on mine, and add a side like broccoli or brussel sprouts or whatever. The sweet tea looks delicious. I bet you can taste the wonderful flavor of the tea leaf. I love parmesan in the bottle; that's what we were raised on, and I've had fresh too, not impressed. Thank you Karen for more fab recipes! Blessings to you!
Hello was watching your recipe for bake mac and cheese you cook similar to mine I also add a 2 big tablespoon of Duke's mayo for the size you made use 1 tablespoon make it really creamy
Great job Karen! I'm English and macaroni cheese isn't seen quite as often on our restaurant menus as it is in the States! But I love it - and it's such a useful dish if you need to feed vegetarians too. Add some delicious veggies or salad to it, and it's a great meal. I never knew how to make it, so your man n' cheese masterclass was fabulous! I never knew it could be made so well, so easily - I assumed you had to make a cheese sauce from scratch. Your way is so much simpler, and looks utterly delicious. Great to learn how to make iced tea too - thank you! I drink around 10 cups of hot sweet tea every day (it's an English addiction!) and never thought to try it iced. Sounds perfect as a Summer drink. OMG I am so impressed with your amazing ice making machine! Is it part of your fridge, or a separate gadget? Could you please give me some details so I can look it up? My favourite alcoholic tipple is rose wine, but I can only drink it with lemonade and lots of ice. I am forever pouring water into freezer ice trays, it's a nuisance job and of course I always spill water on the floor! Thanks for another great video Karen. I'm late to cooking, only started in my 40s and love getting your tips - they are pure gold. And so are you, lovely lady! Much love from a fan across the pond. PS Love your sweet kitty-cat, she is precious! So nice to give them the freedom to come and go as they please, cats love a bit of freedom but they love their home comforts too! Will we be seeing your lovely nephew again soon, I so enjoyed his 'guest appearance' on your channel, when he cooked a very classy meal and sang 'Amazing Grace'. And what a voice! Encore please! ❤❤❤
Thank you. I love to do the Mac and cheese like this. I'm not bothering to make a homemade cheese sauce when you can make it this easily. My ice machine is in my Amazon store. I'll put a link below. Thank you for being a part of our family. ❤️ Https://www.amazon.com/shop/karenjonesfoodfamily
Karen, you make macaroni and cheese just like I do! I also use several types of cheeses to give it a lovely flavour! I think I mentioned this in a previous vlog, but my mom used to make her ice tea using Lipton’s loose tea, since that’s the way she was taught, with pure lemon juice. Since moving to England, I mix my tea bags. I use something called PG Tips or Tetley’s tea bags with an Earl Grey. So good if you like Earl Grey. Btw, I’m the only one that drinks ice tea, since my husband thinks I’m a heathen drinking tea cold! A lot of Brits think tea should be hot NOT cold! Lol! I usually make my macaroni and cheese as a side dish with either meatloaf, or fried chicken. Also with barbecued chicken. Definitely give your recipe a go, sounds delicious, especially adding dry mustard. I guess it gives it a zing! Thank you for your vlog, sounds delicious as all your recipes!
HiCozy. It is in my Amazon store.bi will post the link below. Take a look. Won't cost more just a convenient way for me to help you shop. Thank you. I love it. Use it everyday. Https://www.amazon.com/shop/
Stephanie made pork chops with pork skins. Keto and delicious. The game day foods will be keto by changing the flour to almond flour instead of wheat. We've been talking about doing more Keto recipes. ♥️ check out the link for pork chops. th-cam.com/video/7ToJSlPZAys/w-d-xo.html

My mouth is watering!

Thank you. I hope you will try it and if you do, please let me know 😊 😋♥️
Thank you for showing how to make sweet tea. It’s something my mother never made so I’ve never really known how. ❤
So easy and delicious 😋
I have never made Mac & cheese , because I have never ate good Mac & cheese. I will watch with interest
Have you made some yet?
Yummy 😊
I add some grated nutmeg and a splash of Worcestershire sauce to my macaroni and cheese sauce and a little ground pepper black or white
That would be wonderful additions.
Howdy Karen. That explains the tiny holes in my pots😂 . Here in Az it's almost 100degrees f.
Hello my friend, that macaroni and cheese looked amazing!❤
Thank you. It was creamy and so cheesy 🧀 😋
That’s a real crowd pleaser Karen!! Great job 👍🥰
Thank you. ♥️
Love the pretty blue top & it looks so nice on you. Blue is your color. Macaroni & Cheese looks delicious. BBQ Pulled Pork would be very good on top also.
Thank you. Yes BBQ would be great 😋❤️

Very similar to the sweet tea I make....I use 10 cups of water, and I add one can of frozen lemonade concentrate.
Yumm ❤️
Make room for me on the porch! Thanks 🥰
I have your chair ready and a glass of tea waiting on you 😉♥️
Best Mac n cheese of my life was Mrs Martin's in grade school... Made with "commodity" cheese AKA American cheese given out in the 60's as food supplement

Hi Miss Karen. I know that's some good macaroni. I think I'll make it. The best thing about it is the different cheeses you used and not stingy with the cheese.😊😊
No reason to be stingy. More cheese the better. 😉🧡
Velveeta -- 1 1/2 cup Velvetta (sic) cheese, cubed
Love watching youa,
You have such good ideas on the ingredients!
Thank you!! 😊
Hi Karen, you make my mouth water with that macaroni and cheese. I've been wanting to make some, and now I will. Thanks for sharing your recipes. 🙂❤️

We do.
No sound, Ms. Karen
I'll check it out. Thank you.
Thank you working on it now
Odley sound on TV and computer but not phone on mine
@@popjones2929 Got sound on the Ads at the beginning, but not when your video starts playing.

I make sweet tea all the time my husband has to have 2 cups of sugar in his to me that is way way to much I won't drink it
I used to. I can't any more. Too sweet. 😋❤️ But as long as he's happy
That's the best way to drink it. More sugar the better. Your husband knows what's good.👍👍😁
I am so glad you didn’t make a rue I don’t like the ones with a rue. My family grew up with macaroni & cheese made like you did yours.
I'm not crazy about the cheese sauce made like that either. I don't see a reason to do it. This is yummy 😋 ❤️
Way too much cheese...oh good heavens..
That's just the right amount of cheese. Any less wouldn't be good.😁
