Kiddo Mac & Cheese with Chicken
Ingredients
Food Safety
Before you start, wash all surfaces and your hands with soap and warm water, and remember to wash your hands, utensils and cutting boards after they touch raw meat or eggs. Avoid cross-contamination by using a different cutting board for your meat and other ingredients. Make sure you’re cooking to safe temperatures and chilling any leftovers within two hours.

Steps
Cook macaroni in unsalted water according to package direction until "al dente." Drain macaroni and add back to pot. The macaroni will be cooked again with the sauce so it is best not to over-cook it at this stage.
Stir in butter and chopped cooked chicken.
Meanwhile, add milk, grated cheeses, cracked raw eggs, flour and Dijon mustard to blender or food processor. Process until well mixed. Stir into cooked chicken and cheese.
Heat over medium high heat while stirring until smooth and thick. This takes about 3-5 minutes.
Helpful Tip
Sprinkle in favourite herbs and spices like sweet basil or chili powder during the final step of preparation.
