    This Mac and Cheese Thermomix recipe is perfect for a quick and easy kids dinner.

    This is one of my go-to thermomix recipes for my kids dinner and they ask for it at least once a week!

    The quantities are for two kids, but you can easily double it for four kids or increase a bit more if it's for the whole family.

    Cooking Pasta in the Thermomix

    Honestly, I hardly ever cook the macaroni in the Thermomix for this Thermomix mac n cheese.

    I find it quicker to put a saucepan on to cook the macaroni while I make the cheese sauce in the Thermomix.

    I have however included instructions for cooking the pasta in the Thermomix if you find that easier. If, like me, you prefer to cook the macaroni in a saucepan, just skip straight to the cheese sauce thermomix recipe bit.

    Hidden Vegetable Mac and Cheese

    If you want to sneak in some extra veggies to this recipe, go ahead. I always pop in a cube of cauliflower puree to this macaroni cheese thermomix recipe.

    I add in a cube of frozen cauliflower puree between steps 5 and 6. I add it to the bowl and heat through for 2 minutes / 100 degrees / speed 1. Then I add the cheese as per the recipe.

    My kids never even notice *insert evil laugh*.

    Mac and Cheese Under the Grill

    For me putting the mac and cheese under the oven grill before you serve it just finishes off the dish perfectly. I love those gooey chewy cheesy bits on top.

    Mac and cheese under the grill

    However, my kids actually prefer their macaroni cheese without going under the grill. This suits me if I'm just cooking for them as it saves a bit of time!

    So if you aren't fussed about those gooey chewy cheesy bits, then you can skip step 8 altogether and just serve it after you've mixed the pasta through the sauce.
