Snuggle up with Stouffer's new shelf-stable mac and cheese

When it comes to macaroni and cheese, no one does it better than Stouffer's. No doubt most of us grew up on the brand's frozen mac and cheese.

Now that fall is officially upon us, you might be wanting something not as cold and that's where the newest innovation from Stouffer's comes in. For the first time ever, you can now buy Stouffer's Supreme Shells & Cheese.

This is the brand's shelf-stable option for those wanting that same cheesy taste without having to fire up the oven or microwave. With two flavor options: Cheddar Cheese and Three Cheese, these are perfect for whipping up as a tasty dinner or a side to pair with your favorite dinner. Truly, it's not much harder than putting the frozen Stouffer's in the microwave.

The instructions are incredibly simple as all you have to do is boil water, cook your pasta to your preferred doneness, drain, and then add your cheese sauce. Once you complete those steps, you're able to enjoy Stouffer's Supreme Shells & Cheese.

Is Stouffer's Supreme Shells & Cheese as good as its frozen offering?

Let me start by saying that I am a huge fan of Stouffer's frozen macaroni and cheese. As someone who works in a grocery store, I tend to grab one of these if I don't pack lunch. It's quick, cheap, and filling. Going into the Stouffer's Supreme Shells & Cheese, I had some expectations but didn't want to get too excited.

Even so, Stouffer's completely blew it out of the water for me. As mentioned, this is a pretty simple process and after adding the cheese sauce, I couldn't wait to dig in. I ended up trying the Cheddar Cheese flavor and it was so good. I ended up eating some of this for lunch and it was just so good. It was perfectly cheesy and simple which is what made it so tasty.

Stouffer's also noted that their package features " 10% more cheese sauce than the leading shelf-stable shells and cheese product," and I can confirm. There is a lot of cheese sauce in here and it made things all the better. The other thing I wanted to note is that sometimes when you're trying to reheat these, they tend to lose their cheesy taste and that didn't happen with the Stouffer's Supreme Shells & Cheese.

When taking it for lunch and reheating it in the microwave, it was still just as cheesy and full of flavor as the previous day. Ultimately, that's the true test and Stouffer's passed with flying colors. If you haven't tried Stouffer's Supreme Shells & Cheese, you're truly missing out as it's easy, tasty, and a great value for the suggested $3.99 price tag.
