- 2 Tbsp. paprika
- 2 tsp. black pepper

Directions
- Cook pasta as directed. Drain and set aside.
- Melt butter in medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook onion, if desired, in butter for 5 minutes or until tender. Stir in flour, salt, and pepper and allow to cook for approx. 3 minutes. Gradually add milk and cook, whisking continuously, until thickened.
- Remove from heat. Add cheeses (while keeping about 1/2 cup of shredded cheese aside to garnish tacos) and stir until cheese is melted.
- Combine cheese sauce with cooked macaroni. Add chives or parsley.
- Scoop approximately 1 large serving spoon of mac and cheese into tortilla. Add approximately 1-2 tablespoon(s) of BBQ and sprinkle cheese over the top.
- Slow Cooker Pulled Pork Instructions: Place both pieces of pork in a 4-5 quart slow cooker. Sprinkle brown sugar, paprika, and pepper over pork and turn pork around with a fork to coat pork with seasoning. Pour barbecue sauce and cola over pork. Cover slow cooker. Cook on low for 6-7 hours or until pork pulls easily with a fork. Cool pork, then shred meat using two forks. Use on 15 Cheese Mac and Cheese Tacos, or on buns of your choice, topped with Sargento cheese.
