Gluten Free Baked Macaroni and Cheese

Gluten Free Baked Macaroni and Cheese

Macaroni and Cheese is one of my favourite things to eat. I honestly miss Kraft Dinner - although I know it is so not good for you - I miss it. This recipe is SO much better then Kraft Dinner though!  I make this one with Almond Milk as a base for the cheese sauce. Might seem sort of pointless given it is cheese sauce, but my husband and Baby E can't tolerate milk, but do ok with cheddar cheese.
