Ingredients For my favorite macaroni and cheese

  • 1
    (7.25 oz.) box kraft macaroni & cheese
  • 1/4 cup
    butter, or margarine
  • 1/4 cup
    milk
  • 4 - 5
    tablespoons salsa ( *see note)

How To Make my favorite macaroni and cheese

  • 1
    Prepare the mac'n cheese according to package directions. (I have also made this using the 7.25 oz. box of Kraft's Thick & Creamy Macaroni & Cheese, and it tastes just as good, or even better, but you will need to add a 1/2 cup of milk as stated on the box.)
  • 2
    Just before serving (and while still hot), stir in the salsa.
  • 3
    *Note: Whenever I make this recipe adding salsa that's has more heat to it (like my husbands homemade 'hot' salsa), I only add 4 tablespoons to the mac 'n cheese, but if I use a store bought brand that's not so hot, and is a medium-heat tasting salsa, then I'll add 5 tablespoons of the salsa.
  • Last Step: Don't forget to share! Make all your friends drool by posting a picture of your finished recipe on your favorite social network. And don't forget to tag Just A Pinch and include #justapinchrecipes so we can see it too!
