Macaroni and cheese is the ultimate comfort food. Pasta covered in a creamy, cheesy sauce that is velvety smooth just satiates the taste buds. This dinner-time staple is so popular, you would be hard-pressed to find a celebrity chef without their own version.

Alton Brown adds spinach to upgrade his stovetop mac and cheese recipe, while Ina Garten uses a combo of Gruyère and cheddar cheese and lets her macaroni soak in the sauce overnight to make her buttery, smooth cheese sauce.
