    I made the Chili Macaroni and cheese last night after work and it was SO good. I made enough to have leftovers tonight when I get home from work. I’ll just have to heat it up. The velvetta melts so well and makes the chili so yummy. It is definitely a good recipe and so easy and satisfying in cold weather.
