Shredded cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese for extra cheesiness
Crushed crackers or breadcrumbs for a crunchy topping

Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Air Fryer
Set your air fryer to 350°F (175°C) and let it preheat for about 3-5 minutes. This ensures even heating while keeping the cheese sauce smooth.

Remove the bowl from the box and plastic film, keeping the food inside its tray.
Lightly spray the top of the mac & cheese with cooking spray to prevent drying out.
Step 3: Air Fry the Bacon Mac N’ Cheese
Place the bowl in the air fryer basket and cook at 350°F for 12-14 minutes, stirring halfway through for even heating.
Extra Cheese Boost: In the last 2 minutes of cooking, sprinkle shredded cheese on top for a gooey, melty finish.
Crunchy Topping Option: Sprinkle crushed crackers or breadcrumbs in the last 2 minutes of cooking for a crispy texture.
Step 4: Serve & Enjoy
Carefully remove the bowl from the air fryer and let it cool for 1-2 minutes before eating.
Serve immediately with extra cheese, green onions, or hot sauce for added flavor.
