Salsa Macaroni and Cheese

Nothing is as good as freshly made macaroni and cheese! It's one of the best comfort foods out there. This is a spicy twist on a classic. What's not to like?

What You'll Need:
1 - 16 ounce box of large macaroni elbows
1/2 an 8 ounce package of cream cheese
1/2 of an 12 ounce bar of cheddar cheese, shredded
2 tablespoons of fat free half and half
Freshly ground black pepper
1 cup of salsa (I like medium)

Prepare macaroni according to package directions and drain well.

While macaroni is cooking, melt cheese with half and half and black pepper until melted and smooth. Once mixture is melted and smooth stir in salsa.

Pour melted cheese mixture over cooked and drained macaroni and stir to mix. Serve warm.

Note: You can pour the macaroni into a buttered dish and top with more shredded cheese and bake at 350 F for 20 minutes or until cheese is melted and slightly browned for an extra yummy treat!
