Notes: The Bahamians are big fans of mac and cheese. It is often the side that goes with fries or peas and rice. No wonder Ive gained 10 lbs.! Their style is not the creamy type, but is so good that I had to learn to make it. Dont shy away from the peppers. It is just enough to add interest, but doesnt overwhelm the dish.
