I made this & will try it again as soon as I figure out a way to cut out the 1250 mg of sodium. I'm sure it's the Mac & cheese so I will have to experiment with fresh ingredients to try & make something similar but healthy.

Super easy and quick meal. We serve it with tortilla chips and use it as a dip (especially when reheating leftovers). I've made it with ground turkey and only 1/2 lb of meat and it's still great.

If my husband eating fourth's, and my 2 year old inhaling it, are an indication that this was a hit, then consider it a hit. When my husband says, "You can add this to the rotation", I know it's a keeper! However, I do think it could use some spicing up...we added some hot sauce and it added a spicieness that I think was needed.

My 9 year old daughter loves this one and she is a picky eater. She asks me at least once a week to make it.

I made this recipe today for dinner and loved it! It is a great way to spice up macaroni and cheese. I used lean ground beef to cut out extra fat. I also added frozen mixed vegetables including corn, carrots, and peas to the skillet as well. I will definitely keep this recipe in my kit and make it again.
