Comment:  I found a recipe for Bacon Mac and Cheese on the can of Progresso Recipe Starter but did as I always do, made a few changes.  I used the Tortellini instead of penne pasta.  I used an Italian cheese blend instead of cheddar and eliminated the red bell pepper.  I also topped mine with the French fried onions instead of panko.  This dish turned out simply delicious.  You can make changes by using different flavors of tortellini, cheese and by adding broccoli or even spinach.  Think With Your Taste Buds and make this dish your own.
