I made Ina Garten’s ‘grown up’ mac and cheese. It’s an easy Thanksgiving side dish that everyone will love.

• I recently made Ina Garten’s “grown up” mac and cheese dish. 
• The recipe features Gruyere, extra-sharp cheddar, and blue cheese, plus bacon and breadcrumbs. 
• I thought Garten’s mac and cheese was delicious, and perfect for Thanksgiving.

The holidays are nearly upon us, which means it’s time to indulge in one of the most universally-beloved pastas.

I’m talking about mac and cheese, obviously.

I’m a huge pasta fan, especially when the recipe is by Ina Garten (I’ve even been ranking them!). So before Thanksgiving this year, I decided to try her “grown up” mac and cheese.

Here’s how it went.
