I know, its pretty much a bunch of really high cholesterol, pre-packaged food thrown together.
-
2
But since its also just about the most delicious thing Ive ever eaten in my life, Im putting it online.
-
3
Heres how you make it:
-
4
Chop the onion and saute it until it just starts to cook.
-
5
You want just a little of the onion crunch and original flavor to stay intact.
-
6
Set aside.
-
7
Cook the full package of bacon.
-
8
(I usually cook mine all at once in the oven while Im chopping and cooking the onion.
-
9
That way I dont have to flip it or deal with the greasy mess.)
-
10
After I sample a piece or two of bacon, I let it cool and crumble it up while Im letting the water boil and the pasta cook.
-
11
Follow the instructions on the box for the mac and cheese.
-
12
Remember, you want the deluxe box of macaroni and cheese.
-
13
So, get the Velveeta kind of cheese, but choose the macaroni noodles, not the shells.
-
14
Youll understand why after you make it.
-
15
The macaroni allows for even coverage of blue cheese.
-
16
Its divine.
-
17
Once the mac and cheese has been cooked, drained and made according to the directions on the box, dump in the half-sauted onions, the crumbled bacon and a small container (5 oz.)
-
18
of blue cheese crumbles.
-
19
(If you had a block of blue cheese and wanted to cut/crumble it yourself, you just knock yourself out.
-
20
I go the lazy way and buy it pre-crumbled.)
-
21
At this point, I put it back on the stove and stir it over the heat just long enough to heat it through and let the blue cheese start to get melty.
-
22
And then I eat way too much of it and consider myself a lucky woman to have such a yummy thing for dinner.
-
23
In reality, what youre supposed to do is put it in a 9x13 casserole dish and put buttered bread crumbs over the top and put it in a 350F oven long enough to toast the crumb crust.
-
24
But I prefer it naked, sans crumb crust.
-
25
Mostly because I want to eat it as soon as I can.
-
26
Also, I feel that the crumb crust dries it out a little.
-
27
But you can definitely try it both ways and make up your own mind.
