Pardon me while I drown myself in this bowl of cheesy delicious. It’s macaroni and cheese, doctored up with all the delicious flavors from the traditional King Ranch Chicken.

I’ve made King Ranch Chicken Enchiladas…and we are adding this Mac n Cheese to our “King Ranch list.”

You can use any small shell pasta for this – I used rotini because that’s what I had in my pantry/stockpile. I adore the smokiness of the cumin in this and it plays really nicely with all the cheesy flavors!

Just be warned…you will want to drown yourself in the bowl too. 😉
