INSTRUCTIONS

1 Preheat oven to 400°F. Spray 13x9-inch baking dish with no stick cooking spray; set aside. Place bread slices in food processor and pulse until coarsely crumbled (should yield about 1 1/4 cups). Melt butter in large nonstick skillet on medium-high heat. Add breadcrumbs; cook and stir until lightly browned, about 6 minutes. Remove from skillet; set aside. Carefully wipe out pan.
2 Place ground beef, onion and garlic powder in same skillet. Cook, crumbling beef, on medium-high heat 5 to 7 until beef is browned and onions are softened. Stir in broth, tomato sauce, macaroni, salt and pepper. Bring to boil. Cover and reduce heat to low. Simmer 8 to 10 minutes or until macaroni is tender, stirring occasionally. Stir in mustard, cheese and pickles (if using) just until well blended. Spoon into prepared baking dish. Sprinkle breadcrumbs evenly over top.
3 Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until topping is browned and mixture is bubbly. Let stand 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
