The cheddar cheese gives it that classic mac-and-cheese flavor, but the Havarti cheese makes the sauce feel rich and decadent. While we would have preferred a more standard pasta, these texture issues are pretty minor, and they weren’t enough to put us off of the dish.Īny problems with the pasta are more than made up for by the cheese sauce. The pasta has a slightly hard, al-dente like texture, but it’s also a little bit chewy. Like many of the gluten-free pasta dishes we’ve tried, the texture of the rotini noodles is a bit off. By the time we were ready to eat, it looked like a homemade bechamel sauce. Thankfully, after a few minutes - and some vigorous stirring - it thickened up nicely. The pasta looked fine, but the sauce looked thin and watery. We were a little nervous when this meal came out of our microwave. When we saw the new Trader Joe’s Gluten Free Mac & Cheese, we were eager to heat it up and dig in. Sometimes, these meals really impress us. While none of the Freezer Meal Frenzy staffers are gluten intolerant, we’re not opposed to eating gluten-free meals from time to time.
