When you combine two favorite foods like mac & cheese and French onion soup, you get something incredibly delicious. Creamy, cheesy, smooth and crunchy all at once, this one-pot skillet mac & cheese delivers elevated taste with minimal effort and just a few ingredients. Cheddar cheese and French onion soups come together in a fusion of savory flavors that bring together the best of both dishes. The flavor of caramelized onions merges with cheesy goodness and a toasty, cheesy topping to create a craveable and impressive dish that is ready in less than 30 minutes.
Step 1
Spoon the Cheddar cheese soup into a 12-inch ovenproof skillet. Gradually whisk in the water until well blended. Slowly whisk in the French onion soup. Heat over high heat to a boil, stirring occasionally.
Step 2
Stir in the uncooked pasta. Reduce the heat to medium. Cook for 15 minutes or until the pasta is tender and the soup mixture is reduced and slightly thickened, stirring occasionally. Add 3/4 cup cheese and stir until melted. Season to taste with black pepper.
Step 3
Heat the broiler. Place the bread cubes into a bowl. Add the melted butter and toss to coat. Arrange the bread cubes on the pasta mixture and top with the remaining 1/2 cup cheese.
Step 4
Broil 6 inches from the heat for 2 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the bread cubes are golden brown.
