Mac and Cheese with Chicken

Step 1

Cook the 8 oz elbow macaroni in salted boiling water until al dente, about 8 minutes. Drain and set aside.

Step 2

While pasta cooks, dice the 1 onion and 1 green bell pepper. Cut the 1 lb chicken breast into bite-size pieces.

Step 3

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the chicken with the onion and bell pepper until chicken is golden and cooked through, about 8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

Step 4

Stir in the 1 cup tomato sauce and 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese. Cook until cheese melts and sauce is bubbly, about 3 minutes.

Step 5

Add the cooked macaroni to the skillet and toss everything together until well coated. Serve hot.
