Suvie is the perfect accompaniment for your favorite summer recipes. While you’re outside grilling up the main event, let Suvie prepare everything else inside. Two of our favorite sides at any New England barbeque are baked beans and mac and cheese. We love the tanginess of Vermont cheddar cheese alongside sweet and creamy baked beans. We recommend a young cheddar for this recipe to ensure a smooth texture; any cheese aged over one year may become grainy.

Remove pans from your Suvie. Stir apple cider vinegar into the baked beans and then season to taste with salt and pepper.
Whisk cheese sauce to reincorporate and then stir in the elbow macaroni. If the cheese sauce seems thick, whisk in one or two tablespoons of evaporated milk to thin.

Season with salt and pepper to taste. Transfer to serving bowls.
