Would you ever squeeze a cow’s udder?
Wait.
Is it too early to have an open discussion? Wait. Isn’t that what “the line” is for? Sorry, we totally watched The Internship for the seventh time and we almost-pee-our-pants-laugh-out-loud every time Vince Vaughn says, “put it ON-THE-LINE.” That’s going to be us in fifteen years. Archaic, making up words, and wearing granny panties.
Where was we? Oh, yes, udder’s.
The reason we bring up udders, we are headed to Cleveland, Ohio today to hang out with the American Dairy Association and to do a little cow tipping. Okay, maybe not cow tipping, but more like to compete in a milk chugging contest. That’s not right either. Basically, a group of food bloggers and we are are going to be checking out the dairy scene, milking cows, and shouting, “Cleveland Rocks” every minute and a half.
So, what does that have to do with today’s post? Two things actually. One, hello, mac & cheese! If you are looking crank up your calcium intake, cheese is your best friend. And let’s be real, who is going to say no to a plate full of soft-centered mac and cheese?
Second, this mac & cheese is actually lighter due to a certain seasonal squash, which needs no introduction. Is it us, or is the butternut squash the BUTT in a slue of dirty jokes? Poor thing. Good thing when you slice, dice, and roast it you forget about it’s unusual penis looking characteristics.
Anyways, these sliders are the reliable seasonal and lighter dish to make this fall, especially for game day or getting ready to head out onto the farm. they UDDERLY-memorable!
