super creamy mac & cheese
(3 ratings)
I threw this together one night & my whole family loved it...since then, i have to make it at least once a week. I sometimes add in chopped ham, chicken, turkey, ground beef, tuna, or even chopped up hot dogs. broccoli, peas & corn are good veggie add-ins too. just stir in your meat and/or veggie choice before topping with the crumbs & cheese. you can also use different pasta, like rotini or ziti (i use a 1 lb box).
