Supper Menu

Hi Everyone,
  Yes it has been quite a while since I have posted here on my kitchen.  I have created a new recipe from an old stand by.  Most people when they cook this dish just do it from the box.  I grew up on this from the box and absolutely loved it.  Since I have married Jim he doesn't want it from the box but made from scratch.  I have tried to do it several different ways and love trying to create different flavors.  So for supper tonight we are having Bacon Cheeseburger Mac and Cheese.  Below is my recipe:

Bacon Cheeseburger Mac and Cheese

1 lb. of bacon, cooked crisp, thoroughly drained and chopped
1 lb. of ground meat 80% lean, cooked and drained
1 box of elbow macaroni  cooked al denta
 1 jar of cheez whiz
1 - 1 1/2 cups of milk
3 tablespoons of butter

Cook the first three ingredients as described above.   In a sauce pan soften cheez whiz butter and milk till smooth.  Combine all ingredients together and bake 1/2 hour.

I will be serving mine with a green salad of chopped romaine lettuce, chopped baby spinach and chopped green peppers.  For dressing either  Buttermilk Ranch or Sweet Vidalia.  I thought serving a salad with this dish is like having the lettuce for the bacon cheeseburger.

I encourage you all to give this recipe a try and let me know what you think of it.  Enjoy!!!!

Thanks for stopping by Nana's Kitchen.  You are always welcome here.  Let me know how you do mac and cheese.  Stop by anytime.

Love, Hugs, and God Bless You,
Janet (Kristy, Abby and Dulcie's Nana)
