With Thanksgiving just a couple of days away you might be scrambling. Things to prep and cook and maybe even your tablescape isn’t complete yet either. Stress levels are on high but they don’t have to be.
This year, thankfully, I don’t have to prepare the entire thanksgiving meal. My parents are hosting this year and it’s my job to bring a side dish. With a house to run and 3 kids to take care of I don’t have all the time in the world. So I decided to cut some corners with Boston Market.
I’m not alone though, Boston Market served more than 1 million people last Thanksgiving, and expect to serve more than 1 million again this year!


Now what was I going to do about my side dish? Well this year Boston Market has teamed up with Women’s Basket Hall of Fame star Lisa Leslie to provide some holiday tips and recipes using Boston Market sides as the main ingredient.
Boston Market’s items are prepared using fresh, high-quality ingredients so I knew I was already getting a great tasting product but how could I tweak something to make it more “home-made”? We LOVE mac & cheese and since we will have a lot of kids at Thanksgiving I made some easy and quick adjustments.

- 2 Boston Market Family Size Macaroni and Cheese
- 1-2 clove of garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 6-8 strips of bacon
- preheat over to 350F
- peel garlic and mince, drizzle a little bit of olive oil on and then sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper
- roast in a shallow dish (cookie sheet) for about 5-10 minutes
- While garlic is roasting, pan fry bacon to desired crispness then chop
- Transfer mac and cheese to a casserole dish
- Toss in garlic and bacon then top with additional cheese
- Heat in the oven for about 10 minutes, uncovered. Turn on boiler for the last couple minutes.
