Mac & Cheese & Veggie Skillet

This definitely isnt the healthiest of dinners, but its become a favorite in our house!

Ingredients:

1 pkg. (7-1/4 oz.) Kraft Macaroni & Cheese Dinner
1 pkg. (10 oz. ) frozen mixed vegetables (I prefer a mix with broccoli, peas & carrots)
1/4 cup low fat or skim milk
1 tbsp. butter
1/2 lb. boneless skinless chicken breasts, cooked, chopped (about 1 cup)
1/8 tsp. garlic powder (OPTIONAL)

*I use 2 boxes of mac & cheese & an extra chicken breast - to make enough for the three of us, plus some leftovers

Directions:

1. Cook cubed chicken breasts and drain grease.
2. MEANWHILE, cook Macaroni in large saucepan as directed on package, adding the vegetables to the boiling water along with the macaroni. Drain; return to pan.
3. Add Cheese Sauce Mix and remaining ingredients; mix well.
4. Reduce heat to low; cook 1 to 2 min. or until heated through, stirring occasionally
