I will never make this any other way than this recipe!. It has to be the easiest and tastiest Mac ‘n’ Cheese I’ve ever made.

I am making this for the 3rd time in a month! Kids love it and are always asking it again- I use 2 jars of the cheese and bacon sauce and 400gms of bacon otherwise as per the recipe.

This was super easy & very tasty 😋 everyone loved it & made plenty for 1 A 3 C & still had left overs for our freezer stash!!! I did keep watch as I didn’t want it to dry out, I did add tiny bit of water & then extra handful of cheese just before serving!! This is going in our monthly menu!! Thanks for sharing 👍 😊

Loved it so easy and no milk needed. I added mixed vege and had no bacon so used luncheon meat. Yum. Kid and partner loved it and even had left overs for lunch and tea tonight.

The only way I make this now.I ease up on the cream and I pan fry my bacon pieces .I used to make the packet stuff but this is way better

General consensus was a hit. Although will probably need to fry off the bacon a tad before adding it to the mix.
One kid wouldn’t eat it, but hey can’t win them all, lol. Now to start integrating veg into it so it’s a tad healthier, but very yummy.
Did get a tad dry, but just added the water to rinse out the Chicken Tonight sauce & worked out fine.

Thanks so much for this recipe.
The kids LOVE it. I only add 1x Jar of sauce; 250gm block cream cheese; 1x 250ml cooking cream; Milk accordingly; Italian herbs; S&P; chicken stock powder and a mixture of baking cheeses.
Now they love it, I will slowly introduce grated veggies… lol
Such an easy dinner. Thank you x

Just did a 1/4 batch of the Sneaky Mac n Cheese in my 1.5 lt. As per some of the comments I saw I doubled the Chicken Tonight, I also substituted the bacon for ham.
Heated up the sauce for 20 min first in the slow cooker (saw that being mentioned a few other recipes), added the pasta and cooked for an hour and 10 min.
