Broccoli, Cheese & Bacon Pasta Bake

Ingredients

• 12 oz cooked pasta (shape of choice)
• 1 package Green Giant® Broccoli & Cheese Sauce
• 4 slices bacon, chopped
• 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
• 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella
• salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
• Topping: 1/3 cup breadcrumbs + 1 tablespoon butter

Directions

1. 
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
2. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook chopped bacon until crispy. Remove with a slotted spoon and place on a paper towel-lined plate.
3. While the pasta and bacon are cooking, heat the Green Giant® Broccoli & Cheese Sauce according to package directions. Set aside.
4. Add cooked pasta to the vegetable mixture, and most of the cooked bacon and cheeses (reserve a bit of both for topping) into the sauce. Stir until evenly combined and creamy.
5. Toast breadcrumbs in a small pan with butter until golden brown. Sprinkle over the mac and cheese, with the remaining bacon and cheeses just before serving.
