One Pot Chili Mac And Cheese

Easy Chili Mac and Cheese recipe is a simple dinner time favorite in our house in under 30 minutes.

With the kids getting ready to go back to school I thought I would share with you one of our families favorite easy recipes One Pot Chili Mac and Cheese.

This dish is a blend of two of the most requested things in our house Chili and Macaroni and Cheese cooked in one pot in under 30 minutes.

I don't know anyone who doesn't love an easy dinner from scratch in under 30 minutes. One Pot Chili Mac and Cheese reheats really well for those nights when everyone won't be able to make it to the dinner table at the same time due to sports practice and after school activities.

I love that this recipe keeps the clean up minimal by only using one pot. Dishes just aren't my thing and I'm pretty sure you feel the same way! 

It's as simple as Hamburger Helper but so much better.

One Pot Chili Mac and Cheese has lots of protein with the addition of meat, beans and cheese making it the perfect dish to serve the family at the end of a busy day.

As the weather becomes cooler I know this will quickly be another highly requested dinner on the weekly rotation since everyone requested seconds and they've already asked me to make it again!
