How To Make mexican macaroni

Step 1

Cook pasta to your likeing. (I prefer mine aldente)

Step 2

Drain your pasta and return it to the pot you cooked it in.
Step 3

This is the prefect time to throw in half of the shredded pepper jack cheese so it melts from the warmth of the pasta.
Step 4

Add the green taco sauce.
Step 5

Add the diced green chilis
Step 6

Preheat your oven to 375. Add your macaroni mixture to a glass casserole dish and sprinkle the other half of the cheese on top. Cook untill cheese is melted. I normally cook it about 30 to 40 mins.
