🚨 THANKSGIVING GUIDE Idk where to ask this. Im interested in buying the guide if I can get some more information about what Im getting. What would REALLY be helpful is the schedual of when to cook what and how to plan the prep and cook stuff. This has always been my biggest challange with entertaining. I would definitely buy the guide if all of that is layed out. I dont need just more recipes
Rippoff skank
Love her recipes
So, the pumpkin is more for binder and extender. What a great idea. Thanks.
Yummm
Is there a powder substitute for the shallots & garlic for those who might have "texture issues" with them?
Lol no dry mac, and cheese, omg your face !!!!!
Super cheezy! – Yummy – Thanks – Cheers!

Omg Laura this looks amazing!! I love pumpkin or squash with my pasta!! Sooo delicious. Love your recipes! ❤
Yasss this looks totally amazing, i would expect nothing less from my ultimate cooking fairy godmother! Cant wait to make this!!
I have been making pumpkin Mac for years it is a favorite of my kids year long. I’m so excited to try your recipe they are always the best!!!! ❤
I will try this, it looks marvelous. For all you skeptics out there, pumpkin is wonderful in savory dishes. A friend who had lived in Sierra Leone many years ago came home with a recipe for a stew made of pumpkin, tomatoes and chicken. It blew my mind, it was that good. Pumpkins/squash and tomatoes are a match made in Heaven
Laura, you’re my fairy Godmother LOVE LOVE how you cook girl ❤❤❤❤
You should’ve put “Pumpkin Mac n cheese” in the title. Video would get more views because that actually sounds interesting. But instead you titled the video “fall Mac n cheese” which just sounds like… nothing.
Not sure why you’d do that, but you should definitely edit the title of the video.
I have tons of other notes/advice that would make this channel blow up and be more relevant, so hit me up Laura. I got you 😉
Your husband clearly isn’t much help, aside from holding that camera.
This Mac and cheese sounds delicious and amazing
Thanks for the video
Yeeess.. finally someone says it.. anything creamy needs fresh grated nutmeg. 🤤🤤
You've perfected the craft. What's not to love about this video? Beautiful food, easy to follow tutorial and great banter and personality to boot.
Happy birthday, Laura! 🎂
When is the live show? Don't want to miss
Hi Laura very nice video. I just came across you today very nicely presented and the recipe looks really good. I look forward to seeing more of your videos:-)
There she goes, banging on the counter again. You just know it’s going to be delicious! Thank you, Laura. This is definitely a special fall recipe. Love it! ❤️
Amazing video!
Looks so good! Awesome comfort food!!
YES to the melty mac and cheese visuals!❤ Savory pumpkin dishes are the bomb! Thank you, Laura😊!
My favorite Cooking Fairy❣😋🥰OMG Laura this is….I have no words….I'm definitely making this and hope I can survive going through all the levels of deliciousness. Thank you so much for this recipe. You're awesome.
Still deciding whether or not this is the equivalent to putting raisins in the potato salad, because…..friend😂😂
Woman, the years keep passing and you don't age 💖 been a subber for years and love your videos
I will always Stan for Laura’s countertop fist bang! 🎉🎉😂😂
Looks good ❤
I just made this!!! lol! I make my own version of pumpkin Mac and cheese this time of year using squash/pumpkins from my garden. One of my favorite fall dishes. The sauce is amazing on ravioli too!! And in a pumpkin lasagna. I don’t use flour or butter or onions. I warm heavy cream, a glug of whole milk, and my cheese mixture in a pan with a couple cups of pumpkin purée and finish cooking the pasta in that sauce until the pasta is fully cooked and the sauce thickens. Perfect every time and the sauce doesn’t get clunky when refrigerated and reheated because there’s no flour. I highly recommend the Swiss and Gruyère cheese blend from Trader Joe’s! It’s perfect in any Mac recipe!
I've made a version of this for the last few years since my adult son was vegan: served it at a dinner party and nobody knew it was vegan. Fast forward to today butter, milk and cheese are back in, everybody loves it and nobody knows the secret ingredient! Definitely a good recipe to give tokids who don't like their veggies!
✨ Thank you, Laura ✨
Our family watches you together all the time & we enjoy re-creating all your recipes 🥰 keep up the good work, young lady 🧑🏻🍳
Wonderful
I've been watching you since I was in high school – I'm 27 now and you've really taught me how to cook! My grandmother was from Italy and of course a fabulous cook but she never let anyone else cook, so my mother never learned! Having your videos to teach me as i've grown has truly made me feel more connected to my culture, especially once her cooking was no longer an option – thank you!
Great video Laura😊😊
Someone likes it hot and creamy 😏
You could have dumped the pasta into into the sauce instead but that's just me.
❤❤looks delicious.
The pumpkin reminds me of the time you talked about adding the Spud to the tomato soup man what a world of difference
Σούπερ ❤❤❤
I can't wait to try this out!!
Sorry, but pumpkin is the only squash
i do not like , any squash i'll eat but pumpkin
