Bacon Broccoli Macaroni and Cheese

Your lunch will never be the same.


My local grocery store has recently run two separate sales on macaroni and cheese.  I simply couldn't resist stocking up!  But with eight boxes of it in my cabinet, I decided it was time to use some of it.  Bacon was also on sale recently, and I love broccoli.  This idea was kind of obvious, and I wish I'd thought if it before.  ☺

Bacon Broccoli Macaroni and Cheese

1 box macaroni and cheese
1 cup chopped broccoli
2 slices bacon, fully cooked and crumbled
Water, milk, and butter according to Mac-n-cheese box directions

Cook macaroni noodles according to package directions, and cook broccoli with noodles.  Drain.  Add butter, milk, and cheese sauce mixture.  Mix thoroughly; stir in bacon.  Add a dash of garlic powder if desired.

Serve immediately.
