Sometimes in a hectic world, you want to just find comfort in the simple foods.

Simple mac and cheese with shell pasta, soy milk, ham, mozzarella cheese.

Use macaroni, shell, penne, any small pasta for that matter and cook to al dente and drain. I like my mac and cheese meaty so chopped up some black forest ham and stirred it in a bowl with soymilk (or milk) Parmesan cheese and shredded mozzarella cheese.

For the gourmet touch, take that mixture and put it in an oven safe bowl. Layer the top with sliced cheese and some bread crumbs (panko) and bake at 400F for 5-10 minutes until the top cheese is golden.
