This Rachael Ray recipe to me reminds me of a hamburger in a boat. It was good, it was filling, but nothing to out of the ordinary or amazing. It is very easy to make and kid friendly, so I guess you can’t complain about that!

Total Time: 20 minutes

Notes: I used a wheat french bread, it was pretty good. My mom didn’t have any spicy mustard, and I didn’t pick up any at the store. I will say without that it was dry, not horrible since the sauce in the meat, but dryer then I would have liked! My fault though.

This Rachael Ray recipe I think Rachael Ray makes for her dog. We have a dog, but he does not get to eat people food. That is something I don’t want to start with him, he’s mostly an outdoor dog, so no sitting under the table for him waiting for food. I have never worked with Butternut Squash, but I couldn’t find a box of Butternut Squash at 2 grocery stores. I looked it up and supposedly it is a seasonal vegetable. I bought a fresh one. My mom told me they are hard to work with, she was right. She suggested I microwaved it, so I did, then I cut the skin off and pureed it. I assumed it was to be purred since the sauce was supposed to be smooth. Overall, this mac and cheese was excellent! The little guy loved it!
