Pin This RecipeI served this Mac and Cheese with the skirt steak from yesterday’s post. The recipe came from a restaurant that we loved in Birmingham, Prairie Fire Grill. It went out of business a long time ago, without warning. I was so glad that they had a newsletter where they shared some of their recipes. I needed to keep this Mac and Cheese in my life!
This is very simple and packs a ton of great flavor. It is super-rich and creamy. The secret ingredient in this mac and cheese is Boursin cheese. It really takes this from good to OMG delicious! This takes less than 20 minutes from start to finish and even less time to devour it!

OMG!!! This really is OMG Mac and Cheese! I just took a little taste test of the finished product, DELISHUS!!!
Darby – Boursin is a French herb cream cheese. I used the garlic herb flavor. It is found in the deli cheese section – in the gourmet cheese case.
If any of you have a Trader Joe's near you, they sell Boursin for about half the price of the regular grocery stores. Costco also sells three-packs of Boursin; two garlic herb and one shallot something (which is DEE-LISH).
Oh my heavens this looks awesome. What is Boursin cream cheese? I've never heard of this ingredient.
Oh boy! Oh boy! Oh Boy!! My taste buds are crying out in excitement!
I'm going to try this with fat free half and half and 2% cheeses and see how it turns out. Can't justify all the fat and calories even though it really looks yummy. I'll let you know how it turns out
Sherry – I find the Boursin cheese in the deli cheese section – not behind the counter – in the "fancy" cheese case.
b & Denise – I used the garlic herb flavor of Boursin
I also wonder if there's a specific flavor of the Boursin cheese? Sounds amazing!!!
Thanks,
b.
This cheese comes in different flavors. What did you use ? Wow…I usually disregard comments about too much 'fat' on all fat laden goodies, but this has even me wondering the wisdom !
Believe it or not, I am a cheese lover but I have never heard of this cheese! Is it usually found at most grocery stores?
