Hidden Veggie Baked Mac and Cheese

I made this mac and cheese for my family for dinner and everyone really liked it! Not a single person noticed there was a little boost of butternut squash in there!

I added chicken and broccoli to mine to round it out, but it is yummy solo. Use one yellow to measure a serving. The 21 Day Fix containers used with just the mac and cheese are: 1 yellow and 1 blue. If you serve it with broccoli and chicken it would add 1 red and 1 green.
