Last night I made macaroni and cheese with some jerked chicken tenders. Although I like both of them, the picky eaters were split. Hubby liked the mac and cheese, but didn't care for the jerk seasoning on the chicken. Patrick liked the chicken but hated the macaroni and cheese! I am still going to add the mac and cheese recipe to my cookbook :)
Ingredients:
1 package (16 oz) spiral pasta (I used less than this, probably 2/3 of the box)
2 c. half and half cream
1 can condensed cheddar cheese soup
1/2 cup butter, melted (I only used 1/3 cup)
4 cups shredded cheddar cheese (I used a little less than half of this)
Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain. In a slow cooker, combine the cream, soup and butter until smooth; stir in the cheese and pasta. Cover and cook on low for 2 1/2 hours or until cheese is melted.
I served this with chicken tenders that I salted & peppered and then seasoned with jerked chicken seasoning. Then I cooked in a little bit of olive oil until done. I think I used too much of the jerked chicken seasoning. It was pretty spicy. Next time I will definitely go much easier on the seasoning.
