This post is another example of how I transformed the Mac n’ Cheese leftovers. This sandwich is total ‘Dude Food’… but this chic ate it too!
It’s perfect for when you want something big, messy, and satisfies your craving for pub type food.
It is also perfect to eat while watching your favorite sports game, whether it be football, baseball, basketball.
Just be sure you break out plenty of napkins… or don’t, you can always wipe your hands on your pants or shorts, I won’t tell 🙂
