MMMMM!  I think the name of this Pillsbury recipe says it all: BLT Mac 'n' Cheese.  Bacon, Cheese, Spinach, Tomato... Enjoy!

BLT Mac 'n' Cheese
1 loaf (32 oz) prepared cheese product, cut into large cubes
1/4 cup butter
5 cups whole milk
1 package (16 oz) elbow macaroni
2 cups shredded sharp Cheddar cheese (8 oz)
2 cups small cherry tomatoes
1 bag (9 oz) fresh spinach
1 lb bacon, crisply cooked, crumbled
1 cup Progresso® plain or Italian-style panko crispy bread crumbs

  • In large microwavable bowl, place cheese cubes, butter and milk. Microwave uncovered on High 8 to 10 minutes. Stir with whisk; microwave on High 4 minutes longer. Stir again; repeat microwaving until all cheese is melted and mixture can be stirred smooth, a total of about 15 minutes.
  • Heat oven to 350°F. Cook macaroni in boiling salted water 3 minutes less than directed on box (macaroni should be firm). Drain; place in 15x10-inch (4-quart) glass baking dish. Pour melted cheese sauce over macaroni; mix well. Stir in shredded cheese, tomatoes and spinach.
  • Cover dish with foil; bake 30 minutes. Uncover; sprinkle bacon and bread crumbs evenly over top. Bake 5 minutes longer or until top is lightly browned. Cool at least 10 minutes before serving.
