A note on points: The points listed here are from the Weight Watchers program at the time we first shared this recipe. WW updates its programs often, so please check that this recipe fits the plan you're following.
Prefer to cook the pasta first? Boil the macaroni in water until just tender, drain without rinsing (leave a few tablespoons of pasta water in the pan), then add the soup and milk and bring to a boil.
Leftovers keep in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat with a splash of milk or water.
