I cannot tell you how much I love these. I wish the big box stores sold them in bulk. I can only get them at the grocery store. LOVE! And I tell myself it's healthy because it's baked black beans. I don't look at the nutritional label. Don't tell me ...

We use greek yogurt instead of blue cheese for the dressing which adds so much more protein without the fat. They cook easy in the air fryer.

This is some good mac n'cheese. The noodles are thick. The dish is cheesy. You cannot compare to the orange stuff that comes in a box. I mix chopped up frozen brocoli in it to get veges in and ground beef with taco seasoning and it's a whole meal.
