Sunny Anderson Makes Mac and Cheese with Kevin Fredericks _ The Kitchen _ Food Network

Come back .

Some of you guys might know about this , but we had a Thanksgiving packet cheese recipe where we added some , what we think are creative ingredients that caused quite a stir on social media .

Yes .

Uh You've probably seen this comedian's response .

It got over 11 million views .

Watch .

First of all , she put in the macaroni and cheese and I thought , OK , you know what , maybe you switch the cheeses .

I ain't tripping .

But then , but then she just , I mean , desecrated the mac with Brussels sprouts , cabbage carrots .

What are you doing ?

This ain't a casserole .

This is a staple for Thanksgiving that don't need to be altered at all .

Leave it out guilty .

You know what's really funny about that is we always say that about Thanksgiving .

Like , don't do anything new .

Just keep it simple .

We got , it's our job to keep things , you know , make things fresh and new .

But guess what folks ?

Uh Yeah , guess who's here .

Please welcome comedian Kevin .

I mean , I feel like I should like , hi .

I don't know whether to high five you or run .

You're , you're , you're hilarious .

I wanna know .

How did you come across our mac and cheese .

Well , I'm always making fun of videos on the internet , food videos , cat videos , all types of stuff .

So people are sending me stuff and it was the week of Thanksgiving and everybody was tweeting me Facebook , messaging me Cave .

You gotta see this video .

Please talk about this video .

So I watched it and I was visibly upset .

I don't know .

Well , so what was the , the biggest complaint or comment you got ?

It was just those two things , vegetables and Thanksgiving , macaroni and cheese and then your face .

Jeezy .

You were , it didn't look like you were feeling it .

I was a little upset myself .

Hey youtubers , this is Lisa from Pressure Crisp .

And today we're going to be making some mac and cheese to go with that chicken that I made earlier .

So we're just gonna jump right in the foodie is right here .

The pots in .

We're gonna take £1 of uh elbow macaroni , put it in .

We're gonna go ahead and add four cups of water and one teaspoon of kosher salt .

Gonna go ahead and give this a stir just to make sure everything is mixed up .

All right , there we go .

I'm gonna go ahead and turn the foodie on .

We're gonna take the pressure lid .

Go ahead and put that on .

Make sure it's see it at the seal on the back .

So we're just gonna pop over here to pressure , make sure it's on high , which it usually is .

And time we're gonna do this for four minutes and just hit start .

Uh , breakfast is a breakfast .

Mac and cheese is a mac and cheese .

You can't cross past all those not with , with eggs .

He's the Simon Cowell of Mac and cheese .

He was back .

That's , well , Jeff , you're next .

Let's take a look at Jeff's Muster Mac and cheese , mac and cheese .

It's a yellow thing .

You got yellow , you got green sauce , you got green pasta .

You got a blue spatula for Halloween , man .

That spooky .

I don't know if you know which I guess you actually do know because we do what we do on this show .

We did a , a discussion about what you would like to make and you wanted to make , in your opinion , the best mac and cheese , mac and cheese , which would be my grandma's mac and cheese .

That's what we're gonna do .

This thing I recognized , I don't see Brussels sprouts anywhere .

I recognize processed cheese .

Ok .

It is done .

So we're just gonna go ahead and do a quick release on this .

All right , we're gonna go ahead and take the lid off because the little red tab in the back went down , take it off , shake it a bit All right .

Give it a stir .

There appears to be a little bit of water left in here .

Let's taste the pasta to make sure it's cooked perfect .

All right .

So to this , we're gonna go ahead and add two tablespoons of butter , add some black pepper .

So if you have white pepper , black pepper , it doesn't matter .

Just adds like a teaspoon .

There you go .

We're gonna give it a sprinkling of mustard .

Not too much because some people don't like it .

All right now we're gonna start adding the cheese .

We're gonna add a little bit at a time so it melts .

My cheese mixture is a mixture of um mild cheddar , Colby Monterey and a little bit of mozzarella .

Um You can choose anything you want as long as it equals three cups you can use more .

Um but just go by eye to see how it's all coming together .

That's melting nicely .

So what we're gonna do just keep adding our cheese .

There we go .

Keep stirring .

There we go .

Oh yeah , it's mel melting very nicely .

You see the mozzarella , the long strands .

There we go .

Yeah , that's nice .

Look at that .

All right to this .

We're gonna add one cup of heavy cream or if you have evaporated milk , you can add 12 ounces of evaporated milk .

You want to put the cheese in first before the heavy cream um because the heavy cream is colder and it'll cool the um macaroni before the cheese can melt .

I'm thinking maybe I'm thinking maybe a little bit more cheese , just gonna grab a handful of my topping cheese and just put that in there .

Go ahead and keep stirring .

All right .

So once this is all melted , there you go .

You actually probably give it a little bit a taste .

Um , that's really good .

So we're not gonna add anything , doesn't need any salt pepper or anything .

Put that over there and we're gonna take , it should be about two cups of cheese but you just gonna Sprinkle across the top .

I'm actually gonna go get some more cheese .

Ok ?

Sorry for the interruption .

I just wanted to put more cheese on top .

So what we're gonna do , we're just gonna lower the lid .

Ok ?

So you're gonna go to air .

We're gonna set it for 400 .

Just go over to the time we're gonna set it .

We're gonna start off with five minutes and then um go from there then just hit start .

Ok ?

It's been five minutes .

Went through the cool phase .

Now it's done .

We're gonna open the lid .

Oh my .

Look at that .

Yeah .

Yeah .

Your big moment .

I think it's gonna be all good .

I think it's , I think we're all right .

This is legit .

All right .

So let me get you a nice little scoop out of this .

You like to make the sounds that you get that same sound when your spoon hits the Brussels sprouts too .

It does .

It's like the crunch it .

Awesome .

So cool .

You know what ?

I don't like the Brussels sprouts and the mac and cheese either .

You know what ?

We , we rolled the dice and guess what ?
