Macaroni and Cheese is good, add bacon to it and it's even better.

We were hungry and this is what came of it.

Step 1: Ingredients

Here is what we used for our ingredients.

1 Package of bacon
Noodles - We used 1-16 ounce box of medium shells
Cheddar cheese
Velveta or some sort of melting cheese
Pepper Jack Cheese
Chicken Breast
Bread Crumbs (we used Seasoned French,but you can use regular as well)
Parmesan Cheese
Optional: we used milk during the stirring stage when it started to get too hard to stir.

Materials
We used a dutch oven to cook all of the ingredients (bacon and chicken) and when we mixed everything together.  You can cook your ingredients in pans, or however you prefer, but at the end you will want an oven safe dish for baking.

The recipe seems to make about six servings.

Please do! It is delicious! While we don't always go to this extreme each time we make macaroni, we usually use some parts of the recipe to make it interesting!

Instead of milk, you can use caned soup as a binder base. Cream of mushroom works really well, or there are cheese based soups out there that will add a bit more of that cheesy goodness.

We debated using a broth base, but ended up cutting it out since we wern't sure how it would turn out. But we'll have to try something like cream of mushroom the next time we make it.
