Instructions

Cook Mrs. Miller’s Noodles according to package instructions
In a large skillet, melt the Butter over medium heat. Once melted whisk in the Flour until a paste forms
After 60 seconds, whisk in the Milk, adding a little at a time, stirring constantly until a roux forms.
Remove the roux from heat, and stir in the Birdie’s Pimento Cheese of choice until the cheese has melted and the sauce is smooth.
Pour drained Mrs. Miller’s Noodles into the sauce along with the Broccoli, 3/4 of the Bacon, Salt and Pepper until they’re completely incorporated into the sauce. If mixture seems dry, add a little of the pasta water.
Lightly spray a 9×9 baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Carefully transfer the “Mac and Cheese” mixture into the prepared dish. Spread it out into an even layer using a spatula.
Top with a sprinkle of the Cheddar Cheese.
Bake at 350° for 15 minutes, or until the Cheddar is melted.
