Steps to make Green Mac and Cheese:

- Throw all of your green paste ingredients into food processor
- Make sure you have a smooth looking paste. Do not worry over the smell. It’ll taste good I promise
- Melt the butter on a pan to start working on the cheese sauce
- Pour in the half-and-half and add add the flour before the mixture start to simmer. Your mixture will start to thicken so mix it well with a whisker
- Add 4 tablespoonful of the green paste and mix well. Add salt, pepper, and basil. Don’t forget to taste
- Add the macaroni and then gently fold it in
- I cut my cheese into boxes (just because I hate washing cheese shredder) then add them to the pan. Fold them in gently
- There you have it! Your green mac and cheese. I love to add a pice of butter to my plate of pasta for some extra richness
- Feel free to add some cheese or both cheese and cream over your mac and cheese in a butter-lined baking dish and continue cooking it in 180 degrees Celcius oven for 10 minutes
