Acceptable Mac & Cheese Add In’s

The macaroni cheese that I do is

Cook the macaroni as per the packet instructions
Grate the cheddar cheese
Lightly fry some pancetta or chorizo

When the pasta is done, drain off the water, then stir in the cheese, pancetta/chorizo and some soy sauce

Quick and easy and very filling
 
After New Years, I always make Crab Mac & Cheese w/ the leftover crab meat.
Bacon & Jalapeno's are also a big favorite!
 
pretty much anything. pasta and cheese as the medium, what clashes with that?!

Our Regional Food Bank hosts an annual Mac n Cheese Bowl with about 30 restaurants and 12 amateurs competing. I have three years of attendance and an inch on my waistline that confirms this.

I'm in the camp of pretty much anything. We usually just add some spiced ground beef and maybe some onions. But, I've been known to make a full-blown (bachelor) casserole from mac-n-cheese.

We usually buy the Velveeta shell-n-cheese, but homemade works, too.
