Buffalo Mac 'N Cheese

March 30, 2013

My husband's always been a huge fan of homemade mac 'n cheese. Me, not so much. I find it to be heavy, greasy and too salty. One day, my husband brought home a jar of Ragu's Double Cheddar Cheese Sauce. Scratching my head, I tried to figure out what to do with it. I saw veggies in my fridge, the cheese sauce, and some Frank's Red Hot Buffalo Sauce. And my buffalo mac 'n cheese was born.

1 jar Ragu Double Cheddar Chese Sauce
2 cups elbow macaroni (we use gluten-free potato macaroni)
3 stalks celery, chopped
1 cup of baby carrots, chopped
1/4 cup to 1/2 cup Frank's Red Hot Buffalo Sauce (depending on how spicy you want it)
6 turkey hot dogs, chopped
salt and pepper to taste
8-10 cups of water

1. Preheat over to 400 degrees. Put water into a big stockpot and bring to a boil. Once boiling, put the noodles, chopped carrots and chopped celery into the water. After 5 minutes, throw the chopped up...
