This dish is a delightful twist on a comfort food classic. It's quick and easy to prepare, and is guaranteed to be a delightful meal or side-dish.

 What Do You Need?

• 8 ounces dry elbow macaroni
• 1 can of condensed cheddar cheese soup
• 1 cup of milk
• 1.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 can of petite diced tomatoes
• bacon (or prepared bacon bits)
• salt, pepper, etc.

 

 

What Should You Do? 

Start by cooking macaroni according to package directions, and then start cooking bacon so it will be crispy.

While macaroni is cooking, in a separate medium size saucepan, mix together cheddar soup and milk until blended. Then, add shredded cheese and stir until melted.

Add the desired seasonings (salt and pepper), mix and let simmer.


Next, open and thoroughly drain the tomatoes, then add them to the cheese sauce, mixing well.

Once bacon is well cooked, transfer it to a cutting board and chop into bacon pieces for topping.

Once macaroni is done cooking, add to the sauce and mix everything together.


The final step in creating this delightful dish is to place the macaroni and cheese mixture, top it with crumbled bacon, and enjoy!
