    Take a box of Green Giant frozen broccoli with Cheese Sauce and cook according to package directions - add 1 cup cooked macaroni (whatever you have on hand). Mix. Totally Yummy.

    There is a greater recipe for homemade mac n cheese on skinnytaste.com. I made it the other night and even my husband really enjoyed it. I didnt add the spinach, because my husband doesnt care for it, but it was delicious without and even better the next day.
