Bob Evans Macaroni & CheeseInstructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- Prepare Bob Evans Macaroni and Cheese according to package directions.
- While mac and cheese cooks, place a small skillet over medium heat. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in skillet. Cook shallots and garlic in butter for 3 to 5 minutes until softened and fragrant. Stir frequently to prevent garlic from burning. Remove from heat.
- Pour the mac and cheese into a large mixing bowl. Add shallots, garlic, parmesan cheese, ground mustard, salt, and pepper to the bowl. Stir to combine. Stir in 12 ounces of crab meat.
- Transfer the mac and cheese mixture to a 2-quart casserole dish. Spread into an even layer. Place reserved crabmeat on top of mac and cheese and spread it out over the pasta.
- To make the topping, melt 1 tablespoon of butter. In a medium mixing bowl, stir together Panko bread crumbs and melted butter until the bread crumbs are moistened. Sprinkle evenly over the mac and cheese.
- Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until mac and cheese is bubbling and the top is golden brown.
- Carefully remove your casserole dish from the oven. Sprinkle fresh parsley (and more parmesan if you like) over the top, and serve warm.
