Betty's Chili Mac 'N Cheese Skillet Casserole Recipe

In this video, Betty demonstrates her "last minute meal" Chili Mac 'n Cheese Skillet Casserole recipe. It is super easy and can be made in less than 10 minutes--plus, it tastes great!

Ingredients:

1 cup uncooked elbow macaroni
1/2 medium-sized pot of rapidly boiling water
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon butter, melted
2 tablespoons flour
3/4 cup shredded (or cubed) Velveeta cheese
3/4 cup milk
(2) 15 oz. to 16 oz. cans chili with beans (You may use chili without beans.)

Place 1/2 teaspoon salt in rapidly boiling water. Add 1 cup elbow macaroni. Cook for about 8 minutes, stirring occasionally. While the macaroni is cooking, prepare the other ingredients of your Chili Mac 'N Cheese Skillet. In a medium pot, heat 2 cans of chili with beans over low heat. make your cheese sauce: Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a skillet. Remove from heat and add 2 tablespoons flour. Stir until combined. Add 3/4 cup milk and 3/4 cup shredded Velveeta cheese. Stir, and then move the skillet of cheese sauce back to the stove and cook, stirring constantly, until smooth and bubbly. Drain your macaroni through a colander into the sink, and return it to its own pot, so you can bring it to the stove and add it to your cooked cheese sauce. Now, add your 2 heated cans of chili. Stir, and your Chili Mac 'N Cheese is done! Serve hot from the skillet, or pour into a casserole dish for serving at the table! Kids *love* this!!!

Dear Betty, I would love to try this recipe. The food you make looks really delicious. Thanks for sharing this recipe. By the way, can you make a recipe from your grandmother? Please answer comment. - Jason from Malaysia

@Louise4251 Hi Jason, Thanks for your comment on the Mac 'n Cheese Skillet Casserole. I don't think I have any recipes from my grandmother; she was a great cook, just didn't write instructions down.

this recipe is wonderful. thank you so much. i am a subscriber and fan of your videos, i asked you before if you ever considered auditioning for "The Next Food Network Star". but anyway, i love Hamburger Helper lol. one of my favorites is the chili macaroni kind, which is very heavy. with this recipe of yours however i can cut the fat by half by using hot dog chili with zero fat, yet when i cook it it tastes just as good as that horrible boxed dinner ive loved so much. thank you so much betty

@cedward1984 Thanks for your great feedback! I appreciate it so much! Yes, the way you make this dish is much better for you than Hamburger Helper.

I made this tonight and it was really good. It was quick, economical, and hearty. I added some extra pasta per my family's preference then popped it into a casserole dish in the warmer to help tighten it up a bit more. The kids loved it and it made a ton so I have left overs (bonus!). Thanks so very much for passing this recipe on!
