King Ranch Mac & Cheese, Boston Style

In honor of National Mac & Cheese Day, here's a impressively simple recipe for King Ranch Mac & Cheese, Boston style. Not familiar with King Ranch?, It's basically anything with cheese, chicken and chili peppers This flavor combo has roots in South Texas. Some would add tomato to their definition of King Ranch. Why not put all that together with Mac & Cheese?


INGREDIENTS:

1 box Velveeta Shells & Cheese (12 oz)
1 can Campbell's Chunky Chili Mac soup (18.8 oz.) (the tomatoes are in here)
1 Bumble Bee Snack On the Run! Chicken Salad w/ Crackers Kit

METHOD:

Prepare Velveeta Shells & Cheese as directed
Stir in the Chicken Salad from Bumble Bee Snack on the Run! (snack on the crackers as you go)
Strain the excess liquid from the Chili Mack soup. Set liquid aside.
Stir in the Chili Mac soup.
Drizzle some of the Chili Mac soup liquid over the mixture, as a garnish
Serve & enjoy!

NOTE:
To get this closer to it's King Ranch roots, double the amount of chicken salad and use half of the Chili Mac soup.
