Hi friends, welcome back to my blog. Today I am sharing a delicious and flavorful breakfast cum snack recipe that is a favorite among kids and cheese lovers. My daughter and me relish this dish and can have it almost every day. Since it is mildly spiced and loaded with milk, butter and cheese, Moms can also pack this in their kid's tiffin.
Here I have used All purpose flour, but you can also replace it with 1 tbsp wheat flour to make it more healthy. Also you can add more veggies and sweet corn for added taste. You can also use Penne or any other pasta to make this dish. Do try out the recipe and I am sure your family too would like it.
Let's move on to the recipe of making White Sauce Macaroni at home.
