Two things that Frank and I love are buffalo chicken and macaroni and cheese, so when one of his friends gave us a recipe for buffalo chicken mac ‘n cheese I knew we were going to love it.   I love creamy macaroni and cheese and I knew the addition of spicy chicken would be delicious!

This recipe is easy to make since you use a boxed macaroni.  The recipe calls for Kraft Homestyle Mac ‘n Cheese which has a liquid cheese sauce.   The buffalo chicken adds a good amount of heat and the crumble topping is buttery and delicious.
Buffalo Chicken Mac n Cheese is a delicious baked one dish meal!
Everything is mixed together and then baked up in the oven.   I like making this as an easy one pot dinner but it is also great as a side dish.
