Mac and Cheese for Grown-ups?

by Stephanie

I am very excited by this product announcement, and I think that Kraft foods should send me some samples to review for all you amazing readers. (But they haven’t. I may just have to go spend $2.89 for a box.)

Kraft has introduced Kraft Bistro Deluxe, a new line of “Mac and Cheese” in “sophisticated” flavorings for grown-ups. Instead of the powdered yellow “cheese” and semolina macaroni, we now have options that include Asiago cheese and marinara. Read on, my friends. Because, really, can it get more elementary than boxed pasta!?!?

The cheesy flavor of Kraft Macaroni & Cheese has been a family favorite for years, but just like you, taste buds grow up. Now adults can enjoy the mac and cheese that they’ve always loved, but with premium taste and ingredients created for
the sophisticated adult palate.

Introducing Kraft Bistro Deluxe, a new premium line of mac and cheese featuring fine ingredients such as sundried tomatoes, Portobello mushrooms and Asiago cheese, that helps adults bring the bistro experience home with the twist of unique flavors. And to help bring a real bistro feel to the kitchen table, Kraft is putting a new spin on the classic combo of wine and cheese … wine and mac and cheese that is! By pairing wines with the more grown-up flavors found in Kraft Bistro Deluxe pastas, adults can create a memorable meal in minutes right in their own kitchens.

All four varieties of Kraft Bistro Deluxe are made with premium Kraft cheeses and pastas made with a blend of durum wheat and whole grain. Each variety makes the perfect one-of-a-kind side dish or main entrée.

Available in premium, easy open, 10 oz. pouches, Kraft Bistro Deluxe pastas include:
— Sundried Tomato Parmesan: Penne pasta with sundried tomatoes and Basil in a cheese sauce
— Creamy Portobello Mushroom: Cavatappi pasta with Portobello mushrooms in a creamy three cheese sauce of Parmesan, Romano and Monterey Jack cheeses
— Classic Cheddar: Elbow pasta in a premium Cheddar cheese sauce
— Three Cheese Italiano: Elbow pasta in a Parmesan, Romano and Asiago cheese sauce

All Kraft Bistro Deluxe pastas are a good source of whole grain and aremade with premium Kraft cheese, an excellent source of calcium. Each serving takes less than 10 minutes to prepare and serves two to three people. Kraft Bistro Deluxe is available now in grocery stores nationwide and has a suggested retail price of $2.89.
