Carbornara Garlic Mac & Cheese with Bacon Recipe

Nothing’s better to pair with wine than cheese, so why not make a full meal out of it and make a delicious, ooey gooey cheese pasta. This is a dish that’s a play on the spaghetti carbonara with a classic American twist. You can find different Mac & Cheese Disney recipes all over the parks like Disney California Adventure Carsland Mac ‘N’ Cheese Cone, Creamy Bacon Macaroni & Cheese Tots at the Friar’s Nook in Magic Kingdom, and a Mac & Cheese Food Truck at Disney Springs. Now enjoy this copycat Mac & Cheese recipe right from your kitchen.

  • 2 Cups Milk
  • Garlic
  • 1/2 Cup Grated Pecorino Romano
  • 1/2 Cup Grated White Cheddar
  • Panko
  • Crushed Red Pepper
