Having some leftover mac and cheese in the refrigerator is never a bad thing. Cheesy, comforting, noodle-y goodness is just waiting for you to enjoy it again. But what’s the best way to reheat it? As the mac and cheese sits in the fridge, it can lose some of its creaminess, and you have to be careful that you don’t overheat the sauce, which will cause it to separate and leave behind an oily, grainy texture.
No matter which of these three methods you choose to use, as long as you don’t overheat the mac and cheese, you can be enjoying cheesy goodness that’s pretty darn close to what it tasted like when it was freshly made.
