Ingredients
16 ounces
uncooked elbow macaroni
2.5 cups
milk
2 cups
water
1 teaspoon
garlic salt
0.5 teaspoon
salt
0.25 cup
margarine
0.25 teaspoon
ground black pepper
1.5 cups
shredded white Cheddar cheese
0.5 cup
shredded Parmesan cheese, divided
0.25 cup
panko bread crumbs
0.25 cup
real bacon bits
1 tablespoon
snipped chives
Instructions
STEP 1
Combine macaroni, milk, water, garlic salt, and salt in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat; bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook, stirring frequently until macaroni is soft and most of the liquid has been absorbed, about 7 to 10 minutes.
STEP 2
Off heat, stir in margarine and black pepper until melted. Stir in Cheddar cheese and 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese until melted.
STEP 3
Top macaroni with bread crumbs, remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, and bacon bits.
STEP 4
Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
STEP 5
Broil until topping is lightly browned and crispy, 1 to 3 minutes. Top with chives and serve immediately.
