It&#8217;s <strong>a new version of old-time comfort food.</strong></strong></h2>

<p>There are some days I just don&#8217;t want to eat what I make.</p>
<p><span id="more-3125"></span></p>
<p>And this was one of them.<br />
Not that it didn&#8217;t smell good, or taste good when I did that all-important taste test before putting it into the oven, but I really just wasn&#8217;t in the mood for it when I finally got it to the table.</p>
<p>I just wasn&#8217;t hungry.<br />
Hm&#8230;come to think of it, I think I may have taste tested too much which filled me up.<br />
haha<br />
I also think that it might have been because my mind had been set on having a barbecued chicken pizza for dinner, but when I got home from work I discovered that I didn&#8217;t have the pizza yeast I needed and didn&#8217;t have time to have the dough rise in the regular way.<br />
Scratch that idea, so we (me, myself and I &#8211; because three heads are always better than one, right?) came up with this one.</p>

<p>That tends to happen around here quite a bit, too.</p>
<p>I adapted the recipe from <a title="this recipe by Baked by Rachel" href="http://www.bakedbyrachel.com/barbecue-chicken-macaroni-and-cheese/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">this recipe at Baked by Rachel</a> and <a title="this one from me" href="https://www.365daysofbakingandmore.com/2012/04/kid-friendly-macaroni-and-cheese/">this one from me</a>!</p>

<p>I rate everything I bake on a scale of 1-4 with 4 being the best and this Barbecue Chicken Rigatoni and Cheese earned 3 rolling pins.<br />
The cheese sauce was just a little grainy, but it didn&#8217;t deter us from eating it.</p>
<p>The family really liked it and requested that it be made again.<br />
We have about half the dish left over, so next time I&#8217;ll probably just make half of the recipe and use and 8 X 8-inch baking dish.</p>
