This gluten free Mac & cheese is incredible creamy and smooth, but then baked with a crunchy cheesy topping! It's made with nourishing ingredients, and it's got hidden veggies, too! My toddlers loved it, I loved the quality of the food they were loving, and I'm sure your family, or your holiday guests, will love this dish too!

Notes

I used gluten free cheddar squares, processed until bread crumb like consistency for topping! It has the perfect cheesy crunch. Feel free to use crackers, finely crushed, or bread crumbs too! // Double the recipe if baking for a large crowd, or in a 9x13 dish.
