  • 4 cups cold cooked macaroni and cheese 
  • 2 large eggs 
  • 2 tablespoons milk 
  • 1 cup panko bread crumbs 
  • 1/4 cup dry grated Parmesan cheese 
  • 2 teaspoon Italian seasoning 
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder 
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder 
  • 1 teaspoon salt 
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper 
  • Nonstick cooking spray 
  • 1 cup pizza sauce

  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.  
  2. Form macaroni and cheese into compacted 2 to 3-inch balls. Place on prepared baking sheet and freeze for 30 to 40 minutes. 
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs and milk. 
  4. In a medium bowl, combine panko bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.  
  5. Dip each mac and cheese ball into egg/milk mixture, allowing excess to drip off.  Fully coat in bread crumb mixture. Place back on same baking sheet.
