13WMAZ Recipes from the Heart: Flo's Mac & Cheese

13WMAZ's Suzanne Lawler is making her away around Central Georgia and she's gathering up recipes.

Her first stop was Warner Robins where she visited Florence Mathis who revealed her family's secret macaroni and cheese.

We were live from Flo's home Friday morning where she talked about the love - and tons of cheese in - in her special dish.

We've already received calls to the newsroom from people wanting the recipe.

Well here it is --- but first, there's a catch.

Suzanne wants your best recipe!

13WMAZ is in the process of compiling a cookbook - Recipes from the Heart - and you can be part of this legacy.

Send your recipes to eyewitnessnews@13wmaz.com, or mail to 13WMAZ-TV, 1314 Gray Highway, Macon, GA 31211 (Please write 'Recipes from the Heart' on the envelope.)
