We all got the blues when Kraft announced that it's recalling 6.5 million boxes of macaroni and cheese after finding pieces of metal in some of the boxes.

While the original flavor Kraft mac and cheese is a snack staple, there are plenty of ways to get your mac on that don't involve potentially damaging your insides. You may have to throw the box out, but that doesn't mean you have to curb the craving. In fact, some might argue these alternatives are tastier than the old standby.

Turn those blues around with these mac and cheese recipes that won't send you to the emergency room. (Unless you're lactose intolerant. Please don't eat these with dairy.)
