More About This Recipe

  • Just when mac and cheese couldn't get any better, here's a version with tuna, broccoli and the crunchiest topping ever. Bugles™ corn chips are the secret to the crunch in this easy macaroni dish! I have an unrivaled passion for mac and cheese. From scratch, a box, a bag, my mom… it doesn’t matter. From the diner down the street or that fancy place in New York. From the stove top, from the oven, from a roux or from a mix – I love it all. So I consider myself quite the mac and cheese expert. And as an expert, I can tell you how much I love this all-in-one mac and cheese casserole recipe! If your craving is as relentless as mine, here’s a quick way to turn a couple boxes of mac and cheese into a complete meal with a couple of quick twists. And it’s versatile. If broccoli isn’t your thing, choose a bag of peas and carrots instead. If tuna isn’t your thing, add some rotisserie chicken or cooked ham. I added a crushed Bugles™ topping. It turns out they're are the perfect topping for mac and cheese! Let sit for 5 minutes after baking, then serve and enjoy!
