Easy Bacon Mac and Cheese

Step 1

In a large skillet, cook bacon in batches until crisp. Remove to a paper towel lined plate. Drain all but 2 tbsp (30 mL)of the fat and cook onion about 5 minutes over medium heat until softened.

Step 2

Meanwhile, in a large pot of boiling water cook macaroni for about 8 minutes or until al dente. Drain and return to pot. Break up the bacon and stir into macaroni with cooked onion, 2 cups (500 mL) of the cheese and pepper.

Spoon out into shallow bowls and sprinkle with green onions and remaining cheese. Drizzle with ketchup, salsa or chili sauce to serve, if using.
