The kids absolutely loved it and they had no idea of my secret hidden vegetable ingredient!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I used panko breadcrumbs to top my Mac &amp; Cheese as they make an extra-crunchy topping

Blitz until all the ingredients have combined to a sauce consistency. If it seems too thick then add a little extra milk. Season with salt and pepper if you wish.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-5\">Drain the pasta and return it to the saucepan.
