Mac and Cheese Croquettes
"A great way to use up leftover macaroni and cheese . . . it's actually better the second time around. The yield will vary with the amount of leftovers you have. Feel free to experiment with different spices. Note: The macaroni and cheese squares can be frozen until ready to use. Just thaw, bread and deep fry and bake!"
