Mac&Cheese

Monday is grocery day at my house, however we weren't able to go this week because we had company for a couple of days. So as it turns out come dinner time, we had 3 squash, 1/2 a white onion, and a couple of green peppers. Yeah I know not much in the veggie drawer. We were having pork chops and I was totally dying for some creamy mac&cheese. Only problem is I didn't have any milk or cream either...


I did have a little coconut milk in the fridge, I also had some left over spaghetti squash.... soooooooo
