What are some ways to spice up Mac and Cheese?

I was honestly going to just pan fry some chicken and herbs, cut it up and toss it in, but I also have some breadcrumbs and veggies I wanna use.

Ideas?

Former roommate managed to cook the god of all Mac n cheese.
It was roughly this:
Standard cheese sauce, in our case it was the 'Caroline's kokken'. Given you're must likely a murrican, it'll be hard to get.
I never got the quantities but it's something like this:
Ref cheddar, the more mature, the better.
Fry heroes de Provence in oil before adding sliced and diced ham.
Spice with smoked paprika.

Just toss in the chicken and veggies after mixing the cheese and pasta, toss the breadcrumbs in a bit of melted butter, and spread on top. Wa la
