Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams Macaroni pasta
- 200 grams Shredded cheddar cheese
- 250 ml Milk
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 tablespoon All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 50 grams Cooked and crumbled bacon
- 50 grams Pizza-flavored chips
- 2 tablespoons Fresh chives (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the macaroni pasta according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
In the same pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the all-purpose flour and whisk to form a smooth paste. Cook for 1-2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.
Gradually pour in the milk while whisking constantly to avoid lumps. Continue to cook the mixture, stirring often, until it thickens into a creamy sauce, about 3-4 minutes.
Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until fully melted and creamy. Add the salt and mix well.
Add the cooked macaroni back into the pot and stir until the pasta is evenly coated with the cheese sauce.
Transfer the mac and cheese into a serving dish and sprinkle the cooked, crumbled bacon over the top.
Crush the pizza-flavored chips into small pieces and sprinkle them evenly over the bacon layer to give the dish a crunchy, flavorful topping.
Garnish with fresh chives, if desired, for a pop of color and a touch of freshness.
Serve immediately and enjoy this quirky, internet-inspired 'Memes Meal' while it’s hot!
