Make Chili Mac! Super Simple Hangout Dinner! | The Neighbors Kitchen

Have you ever heard of Chili Mac before? If you haven't, you need to start keeping these ingredients on hand! This makes for a super simple, quick and delicious meal that will go over like gangbusters. I use leftover chili in the video but feel free to make some from scratch for this OR use store bought; after all, this is supposed to be EASY!

Small Batch (2-3 servings)

1 tbsp butter
1 tbsp all purpose flour
1/4 cup sharp cheddar
1/4 cup Velveeta (cubed)
1 cup elbow macaroni
2 cups of chili

Medium Batch (4-6 servings)

2 tbsp butter
2 tbsp all purpose flour
1/2 cup sharp cheddar
1/2 cup Velveeta (cubed)
2 cup elbow macaroni
4 cups of chili

Large Batch (8-12 servings)

4 tbsp butter
4 tbsp all purpose flour
1 cup sharp cheddar
1 cup Velveeta (cubed)
4 cup elbow macaroni
8 cups of chili

Instructions:

1) Start out with making a yellow roux by melting 2 tbsp of butter in a small pot or saucepan on medium-low heat.
2) Stir in flour, continue stirring until there are no clumps of flour remaining.
3) Add in the cheese and Velveeta and reduce heat to low, allow to melt, and stir as necessary.
4) In another pot (sized appropriately for the batch size you are making) start boiling water per the instructions of the pasta, cook pasta to desired firmness and drain water.
5) Return cooked pasta to pot and stir in the melted cheese.
6) Add chili and stir until evenly distributed, place on low heat with a lid until temperature comes up to serving temp!
