My kids love this macaroni and cheese soup recipe because it reminds them of their favorite pasta meal. The best part of this is that you know it is homemade and doesn’t have that powdered cheese flavor that boxed choices have.

Since mac and cheese soup comes together so easily, it’s a great last minute menu item when you don’t know what to make for dinner.

Not to mention you can really clean out the fridge of those dying veggies we all have! I tend to always have some carrots and celery I can toss into the cast iron skillet to saute, but the possibilities are really endless.

Some fun additions that you could add:

  • Italian sausage
  • Ground beef, turkey, or chicken
  • Chunks of chicken
  • Broccoli
  • Cauliflower
  • Asparagus
  • Sweet peas

Most of the ingredients needed can already be found in your pantry, so it is a great last-minute meal option for busy weeknights. You can even put this into your Crockpot to simmer on low for a few hours while you work.

We love how hearty and delicious this soup is when you add more vegetables, and kids will never fuss about it knowing they have their favorite dish in soup form!
