SIMPLE MACARONI AND CHEESE
A very quick and easy fix to a tasty side-dish. Fancy, designer mac and cheese often costs forty or fifty dollars to prepare when you have so many exotic and expensive cheeses, but they aren't always the best tasting. This recipe is cheap and tasty.

HOMEMADE MASCARPONE CHEESE
I'm showing you how to make homemade mascarpone, or Italian-style cream cheese, which is very similar to regular cream cheese, except pretty much better in every way. It's not quite as tangy, but it is richer and more decadent. Whether you're going to use it in classic desserts like cheesecake or tiramisu, or just as a simple spread for bread, this recipe couldn't be easier, and only requires 2 ingredients.
