"My kids love cheddarwursts (cheddar sausages) and macaroni & cheese. And they especially love them together. This is the simplest, silliest "recipe" but it's well-loved at our house and a hit when I have to make dinner in a hurry when they have friends over. We use Kraft Dinner mac & cheese, but use whatever you like. This recipe calls for the mac & cheese to be prepared, so don't forget the milk and butter on your grocery list, if needed. This also calls for the cheddarwursts to be cooked through until hot -- boil, grill, microwave, pan fry, etc. My kids always sprinkle seasoned salt on ANY mac & cheese they eat but their friends think it's weird. That ingredient/step is entirely optional."
