Creamy Bacon Mac and Cheese
Just made this tonight for dinner, it was a success! My eight year old loved it, had two servings! I doubled the recipe and baked in two loaf pans. I used a little extra cheese and extra bread crumbs, just personal preference. Next time I will definitely add some real bacon. I think this is a perfect recipe when you're running short on time, simple and quick!

So good
I have made this recipe many times and love it! I add almost an extra cup of cheese though and a bit more breadcrumbs. Also I just tried it for the first time today using gnocchi and it was soooo good!

Bacon cheeseburger shells
I used this recipe but instead of just a mac and cheese, I used extra large noodles stuffed with cheeseburger style groundbeef baked in the dish topped with extra cheese.

Delicious!!!!
I didn't have the recommended cheese, so I used Walmart's own brand shredded light/medium cheddar, parmesan and mozzarella mix. I used a bit more cheese then the recipe calls for and added extra bacon bits. I will definitely will be making it again and I would recommend it!
