Alright, this was tonight's dinner. Turned out pretty good too...


Fry up the bacon first off...



then dice the onions...



And the bell pepper.....




Take the onion, pepper, and ground beef, and fry it up...



Add in the flour...



Milk...


Velveeta...




And the cheese sauce from the mac'n'cheese...


Mix it up good, and let it simmer....



After the macaroni is cooked, add in the cheese sauce that we've just made....



Add in the corn...



The cheddar cheese.....




Mix it up real good, then pour into glass baking dish, then get your ritz crackers...



And crumble them over your food....



Bake 375 for 10 minutes to get the crackers nice and golden...




And serve...




To recap, the recipe is....

bacon-crumbled
onion-minced
red bell pepper-minced
can of corn
ground beef
1/4 lb of velveeta cheese
black pepper
3 packages of Deluxe macaroni
1/2 cup of milk
2 tbsps of flour
2 cups of cheddar cheese
1/2 cup of ritz cracker crumbs

Fry the bacon, crumble it, add the minced onions and bell peppers to the bacon grease, cook until onion is translucent but not carmelized,  add the ground beef (cook until browned) add the flour, pour in the milk one tablespoon at a time, whisk the mixture to prevent clumping,  when all the milk has been added, allow sauce to simmer for 10 minutes, then add velveeta cheese, cheese sauce packets and season with some pepper to taste.

Cook pasta according to package directions.  Drain.  Add sauce mixture to pasta, stir in corn and cheddar cheese.  Put in 11 by 13 glass baking dish.   Top with ritz cracker crumbs.  Bake for 15 minutes at 375 degrees.

Enjoy...

Delicious cheesey goodness! What a nice comforting supper. Your bell pepper sure looked nicely red and perfectly ripe, I'm sure it added a whole level of taste to the dish. Never added bacon in ny version and your thick cut slices sure looked good- I'll have to try it that way next time I make it. Love that meal! Thumbs Up

It turned out great, and there are leftovers (3 packages make QUITE a bit) for snacking the next couple of days.
