Full recipe below ⬇️ Pasta • 2 lb elbow noodles • 2 tbsp chicken bouillon powder Seasonings • 1 tsp onion powder • 1 tsp garlic powder • ½ tsp Nature’s seasoning • 1 tsp blackened seasoning • ½ tsp Cajun seasoning • ½ tsp seasoned salt • ½ tsp black pepper • ½ tsp smoked paprika • Fresh parsley for garnish Cheese • 8 oz mild cheddar • 8 oz extra sharp white cheddar • 8 oz Colby Jack • 8 oz smoked Gouda • 8 oz mozzarella Cheese Sauce • 3 tbsp unsalted butter • 3 tbsp all-purpose flour • 12 fl oz evaporated milk • 3 cups heavy cream • ½ of all cheeses Instructions: 1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add 2 tbsp of chicken bouillon powder. Add the elbow noodles and cook until al dente. Drain and set aside. 2. Melt your butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add your seasonings and whisk for 1 minute. Add the flour and continue whisking for another 2 minutes. 3. Slowly pour in the evaporated milk while continuously whisking to prevent lumps from forming. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and has thickened. Pour in the heavy cream and whisk until everything is completely combined and smooth. 4. Turn off the heat and begin adding half of all your shredded cheeses. Whisk until the cheese is completely melted and the sauce is velvety. Reserve the other half of the cheese for layering and topping. 5. In a large bowl, mix together your cheese sauce and elbow noodles. In a baking dish, layer your Mac and cheese and finish with cheese on top. Sprinkle extra smoked paprika over the top for color. 6. Bake uncovered at 350°F for 25 minutes. Turn your oven to high broil for 2–4 minutes until the cheese on top is golden and bubbly. Allow your mac and cheese to rest for 10 minutes before scooping and enjoy :) #fyp #macandcheese #thanksgivingdinner #recipesoftiktok #creamy

The Thanksgiving Table Part 2: Sweet Potato Casserole 🧡 this side dish is my all time favorite (& yes i believe marshmallows belong on sweet potatoes). recipe below!! Sweet Potato Casserole Ingredients * 2–3 lbs sweet potatoes, mashed * 6 tbsp butter, melted * 1/2 cup brown sugar * 1 tbsp cinnamon * 1 tsp nutmeg * 1 tsp vanilla extract * 1 tsp salt * 10 oz marshmallows * Extra brown sugar for topping (optional) Instructions 1. Bake the sweet potatoes: Preheat oven to 400°F. Wash and dry the sweet potatoes, then poke each one 6–10 times with a fork to allow steam to escape. Lightly rub the skins with olive or vegetable oil if desired, then wrap each potato loosely in aluminum foil. Place on a baking sheet and bake for 45–60 minutes, or up to 75–90 minutes for larger potatoes, until softened and easily pierced with a fork. Check for doneness around 45 minutes. 2. Mash the sweet potatoes: Carefully unwrap the potatoes and allow them to cool slightly before removing the skins. Mash the sweet potatoes in a large bowl until smooth. Alternatively, you can peel the sweet potatoes, cut them into large chunks, and boil until fork-tender before mashing. 3. Mix the filling: Add the melted butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla extract, and salt to the mashed sweet potatoes. Mix until everything is well combined. 4. Prepare the casserole: Preheat oven to 375°F. Grease a baking dish with oil or butter. Transfer the sweet potato mixture into the dish and spread it into an even layer. Sprinkle a little extra brown sugar over the top if desired. 5. Bake: Bake at 375°F for 30 minutes. 6. Add the marshmallows: Remove the casserole from the oven and evenly distribute the marshmallows over the top. Return to the oven for another 10 minutes, watching closely until the marshmallows are golden brown. 7. Serve: Remove from the oven and serve warm! #thanksgivingdinner #thanksgivingrecipes #thanksgivingfood #sweetpotato #sides
