When I was five, my favorite food was Kraft macaroni and cheese and hot dogs. Tonight I felt the familiar craving for something cheesy with delectable little curly noodles. Given I no longer have the worhipful awe of fake cheese powder, I decided to use real cheddar cheese. I dug in my freezer and found some Steak-ums and a bag of broccoli.
I set some water in a pot to boil.
I took out a large pan and put about five "steak-ums" on the heat.
Then I emptied the bag of broccoli into the pan too.
I grated the cheddar, while stirring the beefy broccoli.
The water boiled and I threw in a box of Elbow Macaroni Noodles.
I stirred the pasta, beef and broccoli and grated the rest of the cheese.
When the veggies and meat were cooked I let them stand.
Once the pasta was cooked and strained, I added about two tablespoons of butter and stirred it into the pasta. Then I added the grated cheddar with a splash of milk. Once the mac and cheese was evenly distributed, I stirred in the Broccoli and Beef.
I had enough to feed Nicole, Nadine and Myself. The vote was unanimous. It was simple, sumptuous and satisfying.
