Macaroni is not suitable for macaroni cheese?

Nope. Not for me. I usually use rigatoni.
There's a few different types of macaroni, innit? The Italian elbow shaped one is different from the teeny one you get in Kraft for instance.

Felt the need for cake for some reason, so quarter of an apple & blackcurrant crumble cake.

My boyfriend's flying back, so I've got some chicken breast pieces marinading in yoghurt tandoori sauce, when he lands I'll put them in the oven and do a salad and warm up some pitta bread.

I found a Christmas pudding in the cupboard. I think it might have been there for 3 years. I'm eating it 
If the cheese sauce in your macaroni cheese is runny enough to need a certain type of pasta to hold it you are DOING IT WRONG. Hth

It doesn't run out of the pasta, silly! The cheese sauce should be ridiculously thickIf the cheese sauce in your macaroni cheese is runny enough to need a certain type of pasta to hold it you are DOING IT WRONG. Hth
So why do you need a certain type of pasta if you're making proper thick sauce that sticks it all together?

Cos you get cheesier squirtier mouthfuls. The pasta delivers the sauce betterSo why do you need a certain type of pasta if you're making proper thick sauce that sticks it all together?
There should be a thick coating of cheese sauce sticking the macaroni together. It shouldn't be runny enough to squirt.

Ooze then
Macaroni gives a more ooze-friendly pasta:sauce ratio than big pasta.

Who knew pasta and cheese sauce could be so contentious?

Nope, bigger tubes carry more sauce. Much more satisfactory

Basa fillets, rice, tenderstem broccoli & peas.
Mrs Miggins Getting the (Aldi) fish fillets out the freezer this evening reminded me that I looked for individual salmon wellingtons in Aldi last week, but couldn't see any. I'm sure they used to do them.

Vegetarian lasagne (first layer: tomato, red pepper, red onion and courgettes mixed with a nut roast and simmered. Second layer: huge bag of drained wilted spinach, mixed in a mozzarella and Parmesan cheese sauce. Third layer: griddled portobello mushrooms filled with chopped garlic and goats cheese. Fourth layer: more spinach and cheese sauce topped with grated cheese and halves of tomatoes).
We had a bag of mixed fresh veg with it (broccoli, carrots and green beans).
I thought I'd have some left over for tomorrow night's tea, but no it was all hoovered up.
