Mac and cheese ... what do you add to it?

You mom and mine must have used the same cookbook. She'd make mac/cheese tuna casserole with crumbled up potato chips, and bake it in the oven. Pretty tasty, though it probably had enough sodium to give Godzilla high blood pressure.

Why would you add anything to mac and cheese... it is mac and cheese... not mac and cheese and hotdogs, or mac and cheese and tuna and peas... You don't add anything to mac and cheese... leave a classic alone!

I make homemade and usually put in broccoli and/or tomatoes.

I love me some velveeta shells and cheese...lol....and every once in awhile we add mushrooms or other ingredients. We have tried it lots of ways...even with canned pineapple...and it was awesome...lol...

Yeah, it can get pretty boring after a while without adding something. We slice up hotdogs and put them in it. Not bad. Not bad at all.

I add cream of mushroom soup and tuna to mac and cheese and it's really good.

I like homemade, I add rotel tomatoes, or sour cream to give it a different flavor, sometimes adding a little taco seasoning is good too.

My Bf makes Mac and Cheese w/ Cambells Chunky soup. Don't ask me what kind cause I have no Idea. All I know is that It has potatos and meat in it. It is so good! I'm making myself hungry thinking about it! I don't know where he got that recipie from....maybe his mother. My Mom also makes Mac and Cheese she makes it as a side dish whenever she cookes chicken and veggies.

I am so glad you posted this!!!!Give me Kraft Mac n Cheese!!!! And generic is a big NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! We have had it a few different ways. If I am sick, I want it just as it is to be made per the box. Nothing added, it is my comfort food! But my kids like to add tuna and diced tomotoes or sliced hotdogs. I'll be coming back to see what everyone else adds.

I have put hot dogs in them before. But other then that don't put anything extra in them. I use the Easy Macs now more then anything else because my husband isn't a huge Mac and cheese fan, so its easier that way. We did use to get and eat the Annie's Mexican Macaroni and Cheese, but can't find it anymore around here. That stuff was nummy.

Ham

I like the Velvita Shells and Cheese the best. The generic kind of Velvita is ok too.

i used to love mac and cheese as a kid but now i think it's disgusting. i won't eat it out of a box or home made. my step father used to put cut up hot dog weeners in it which made it really gross for me since i don't even eat hot dogs either.

Ever tried mac and cheese with a touch of hot sauce! YUM!

Sometimes I put Brocoili in it. the same way you make Macoroni and cheese it is really good.

I add tons upon tons of hot sauce. Sometimes hot peppers. I am crazy for hot and spicy things....

We like to add Lipton French Onion Soup and Hamburger to ours....It is soooooooo good... And the next it is really good.. We like the Cheddar Mac and Cheese and the 4 Cheeses ones... Sometimes we add Ham. It it nice to have a change once and a while...

I like Kraft and Velveeta! Velveeta is that bomb with nothing added to it. I also like the homemade Mac and Cheese...its really cheesey. But, since Kraft is sooooo good I like leaving plain, add tuna, or sliced hotdogs. Oh, and with the tuna diced tomatoes please!! I love Mac and Cheese!! And I also like the Kraft Mac and Cheese Delux. Reminds me of Velveeta! It's GREAT!

yes i love mac and cheese. i like it home made and we never tried ready made ones. baked mac is better with bacons added to it. hotdogs are ok. make them in smaller pieces.

Back when I was in college I learned about chili mac. You can get pretty desperate living in an apartment with five other guys and after a fews weeks of mac & cheese for every meal you can get pretty creative. The most successful concoction was chili mac, it is the combination of a box of mac & cheese and a can of chili, which makes for a mighty tasty meal (and the ingredients are pretty cheap). But I still enjoy a meal of good old plain mac & cheese from time to time.
