There’s nothing more comforting than a warm bowl of mac and cheese. The beauty of the dish is in its simplicity. But just because it’s a simple recipe doesn’t mean it can’t be enhanced. From experimenting with different cheeses and noodles to adding lobster or green chilies, it’s easy to give this classic dish a whole new spin. No matter how unconventional they may seem, the following ideas can turn this traditional comfort food taste into an inventive culinary delight. If any of the recipes catch your eye, be sure to click the Spring It! button to save it for later. (New to Springpad?

Day three of ‘Ten Days of Valentine’s Day‘ brings some delicious recipes from Springpad’s partners. If you’re like me, then you prefer to avoid restaurants on Valentine’s Day and opt for a more relaxing, romantic night at home preparing a fresh and delicious meal with your honey. This year, I tapped some of our food blog partners to find out what they suggest for a savory Valentine’s Day feast.

I hope everyone’s Thanksgiving was great – and delicious – I know mine was! Even though December doesn’t start until Tuesday, but more of the week’s in December than it is November! Plus, I love the month of December – it’s the best of the holiday season. So this week, because I’m embracing the (near) start of winter, I’ve got a bunch of warm, delicious recipes to try!

Because Thanksgiving’s on Thursday I’m trying recipes the rest of the week that have nothing to do with the holidays… until after Thursday, when we’ll be living off of leftovers for ages. I’m excited to try a couple new recipes, and I do love this holiday!

Back to the Cutting Board is a great food blog based out of Virginia. After years of eating out for the majority of the week and rarely cooking, Emily finally got to the point where she just didn’t want to step foot in one more restaurant. So she started the blog as a way to chronicle this new phase of her life and to also share recipes and tips with others.
Why Springpad? In her words:
I used to use a bunch of different applications to organize work, personal and cooking stuff; and with Springpad I finally found a place where I can put it all together. I started using it to share and find recipes, but it has all these other great apps to help you get organized. I store my personal and work to do lists, keep track of all my work project notes and how much time I work on each project. I’m also using it to keep track of my diet, wishlist, and grocery list.
And, with one simple “Save” button on her site, Emily gives her readers and the Springpad community the opportunity to collect, organize, personalize, share and use her recipes and recommendations as they see fit. At the same time, she’s able to share her baking tips and expertise (especially around the holidays) to extend the reach of her brand to a whole new audience.
