Bacon and Mac & Cheese!?
What in the world could be better than that! I love this dish, it is a great addition to any pot luck.
Makes: 16 servings
Total Time: Prep: 35 min Bake: 40 min
Ingredients:
6 cups uncooked elbow macaroni
1 pound bacon strips, diced
3 cups milk
2 cups pepper jack cheese (Shredded)
1 cup colby jack cheese (Shredded)
8 ounces Velveeta (cubed)
1 cup cheddar cheese (Shredded)
1 onion, chopped
1/3 cup bread crumbs
Salt & Pepper to taste
**Note: I prefer to use block cheese, and shred the cheese myself. It seems to melt better than pre-shredded cheese.
1.) Set oven to 400. Cover baking sheet with aluminum foil, and place bacon on covered sheet. Cook bacon in the oven for 10 minutes.
3.) In a sauce pan begin to boil milk. Add cheeses to pan, cook and stir until well blended.
4.) Stir in chopped onion and salt and pepper.
5.) Place noodles in a greased 13-in by 9-in baking dish. Poor cheese and milk and cheese mixture over noodles, making sure to coat all noodles.
6.) Place chopped bacon over noodles, top with bread crumbs and left over cheese.
7.) Cover and bake at 350 for 30 minutes. Uncover and bake 10-15 minutes longer, or until cheese is melted.
Enjoy!
