Fast, Easy and Delicious

my step daughter loves Mac N Cheese. most kids do, I grew up eating the old box stuff with the powder cheese. when I think about it now, seem so long ago. I have found over the years many recipes to combine the old box stuff with new ingredients. I will share those some other time. My husband on the other hand grew up eating the old box stuff and now in his 40’s hates it. after 12 years of marriage I have had to come up with new ways of making it. here is just one of the ways I have been able to get him to eat it.

This is a different type of mac n cheese. its a meal in itself, I hope when you make it you enjoy it as much as we do.

what you will need for this recipe:

1 lb of velveta

1 lb monteray jack

1 box of pasta, i like to use elbow or rotini. you can use any type you like

1 can rotel

1 package cubed ham or 1 lb cubed chicken

Pre heat oven to 325 degrees. cook pasta per directions. drain and set aside. in same pan melt cheese and rotel together. when cheese is melted add ham or chicken. then put pasta back in and stire to coat pasta. put in deep dish baking dish and top with bread crums or cracker crumbs. place in oven to bake until crumbs are golden brown.

serve.

this is can be made to be hotter by adding pepperjack cheese rather than the velveta…you can also season your chicken with Fajia seasioning.

this is someting different to have when you need a change. you can also use this as a side dishe to chicken by leaving the chicken out of it.
