EASIEST EVER MAC AND CHEESE (CAMPBELLS)



Easiest Ever Mac and Cheese (Campbells) image

In our house, Mac and Cheese is a staple! (No, I don't have any kids.. it is I that loves the cheesy pasta.) Based on the reviews on the Campbell's website, this is an easy, go to, tasty recipe. What I like is that I can use whole grain pasta and low fat milk to make it much better than the boxed stuff. I have made these modifications in the listing of the recipe, but certainly use full fat milk (or.. dare I say.. cream!)/regular pasta if you wish. **Original recipe calls for 1/2 can milk and 1/2 can water but I figured Zaar wouldn't recognize that so I put about 2/3 c. It may be more accurate to use the can method.

Provided by Kelsey Nixon

Categories     side-dish

Time 50m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Kosher salt
1 pound elbow macaroni
6 strips thick-cut smoked bacon, cut in 1/4-inch pieces
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
4 cups hot whole milk
Freshly cracked black pepper
1 teaspoon dry mustard, or more as needed
8 ounces sharp Cheddar, shredded (2 cups)
8 ounces Muenster cheese, shredded (2 cups)
1 tablespoon hot sauce

Steps:

  • In a pot of boiling salted water, cook the pasta until al dente; drain.
  • Set an extra-large skillet, or a large heavy saucepan, over medium-low heat and cook the bacon until crispy and the fat renders out, 10 to 12 minutes. Set the bacon aside, reserving the fat to build your sauce. At this point you should have about 1/4 cup of reserved fat. If needed, add some olive oil or butter to make sure you have a 1/4 cup of fat in the pan.
  • Add the flour and cook, whisking constantly, until the paste bubbles a bit, about 2 minutes (make sure it doesn't brown). Continuing to whisk, add 3 cups of the hot milk and cook until the sauce thickens, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Bring the sauce to a boil, reduce the heat to low and cook for 2 to 3 more minutes. Stir in the dry mustard, and then gradually add the Cheddar and Muenster cheeses, stirring constantly until all of the cheese has melted into the sauce. Stir in the hot sauce and the remaining 1 cup milk. Add the cooked pasta to the sauce and stir to coat. Stir in the crispy bacon and season with salt and pepper.
