Macaroni and Cheese Recipe!

pasta related dishes. What a bonus for you! I'll bet
that you didn't expect this when you entered here, did you?
Macaroni
With Cheese! A long time favorite of children and childish individuals
everywhere, it comes as no surprise that El Sparko Diablo loves
this too! Now he is willing to share his secret's with you, so that
you too may enjoy the marvels that come within such a little box!
Materials
Needed:
- 1
box Kraft Macaroni And Cheese Dinner- Look, Mac 'n Cheze
is cheap, so you might as well have good Mac 'n Cheze, right?
- 1/4
cup milk- Normal milk works best, but if you like skim, go for
it. It's your choice. It just won't be as rich.
- 1/2
stick of butter- I use Country Crock
- Chi
Chi's Salsa- Hot, Mild or Medium to taste. I like medium.
- 2 slices
Kraft Singles American Cheese- Don't skimp on the cheese!
You get what you pay for!
- A pot
to cook in- Hollowed out rocks, turtle shells, and empty skulls
also work, but don't have that neat non-stick coating.
- Clean
Water- amount varies in relation to amount of noodles actually
cooked, or size of the pot. The water needs to be clean, since dysentery
is not always seen as an essential part of the dining experience.
- A stove,
fire, or other heat producing device- nuclear reactors do work,
but the decontamination is YOUR problem.
- A noodle
strainer- Unless you want those noodles to go down the drain when
you try to drain the water off!
- A bowl
or plate for the finished product
- Something
to eat with- Forks and Spoons work well, but you can use your
fingers or have your significant other feed you if you want!
- Follow
the basic ones on the box for starters.
- If you
can't follow them, then you have no business being here.
- After
the noodles are cooked, dump them into
the strainer.
- Leave
the heat on the pot for right now, yer gonna need it, but turn it
down to low.
- Dump the
butter into the pot, and let it melt.
- Use this
time to mix the cheese package from the box with the milk.
Trust me, it makes it a lot easier.
- Dump the
noodles back into the pot and get them covered with the butter.
- Add the
cheese slices.
- Pour the
milk/cheese goo into the pot, and stir, making a nice mac and cheese
mixture.
- Add the
salsa. Don't worry, it tastes better than it looks.
- Put it
on a plate, and snack away.
- Substitute
steamed broccoli for the salsa, and you have another great meal!
- Clean
the pots before you eat. Trust me, it will take much less time if
you don't let it dry.
- Don't
put your hand on the heating elements
Ramen
Noodles! That's
right, it's Ramen Noodles, a staple for all college students everywhere.
I first got turned on to the Ramen Experience when I was stationed
in Korea. I would go out and buy a case every two weeks, and believe
me, this was pretty much the norm for everyone there. The mess hall
just didnt cut it sometimes, when you needed that quick snack. My
personal favorite was a brand that had what looked like a sun going
nova on the front of it, to show that it was spicy. Since I came
back to the states, I have found it occasionally, but since the
import costs jack the prices up, its more economical just to go
to Krogers (or your local grocery). After all, if you have money
to waste, why are you eating Ramen?
Materials Needed:2
packages of Maruchan Ramen- Definately the brand to choose, especially
the shrimp flavor. Stay away from Top Ramen at all costs!!!
- A bowl-if
you have a microwave safe one then that makes one less dish to wash
off, provided you aren't too messy.
- More Clean
Water- Yep, you can never have enough of this great stuff!
- A Microwave
oven If you are in the Navy, then you can use the Radar Array on your
ship. Just be advised that the cooking time might be shorter, and
you might get cooked too.
- 2 slices
of Kraft American Cheese- Once again, you just can't skimp on the
cheese.
- 1 Bottle
of Tabasco Sauce- Well, you don't actually need the whole bottle,
just a teaspoon full of it.
- Garlic
Powder- To keep those pesky Ramen Vampires away.
- Chili
Powder- To keep everyone else away when your food digests.
- A fork-
Spoons dont work here, and it doesn't matter if you have a s.o. or
not, because your breath will keep everyone away after this.
Directions:
- Smash
the Ramen packages, unless you like dealing with long noodles. Don't
do too good of a job though, no one likes eating dust.
- Open the
packages, put the contents into your bowl, and take out the foil packages.
Microwaves don't like the flavor packs for some reason.
- Fill the
bowl with enough water to submerge the noodles.
- Put the
bowl into the microwave, and nuke for a while. The time varies with
how strong your microwave is. Mine has no huevos, so it takes me 4
minutes 30 seconds. Just cook long enough so that the noodles are
no longer rock hard, and have become flexible again.
- Remove
the bowl and pour off the excess water. If any of the noodles are
still semi rigid, then work them a little with your fork.
- Add the
cheese, and flavor packs. Add the Tabasco, garlic and cheese to taste,
I usually use three shakes of each. No, that does NOT mean three shakes
from the BIG
HOLES IN THE SHAKERS,
its three shakes from the little ones.
- Mix about,
until it looks like pond water.
- Nuke it
again for about 40 seconds so that the cheese melts.
- Remove
and enjoy.
Sparky's
Tips:
- Add meat
for even more gastric thrills!
- Dry Fido
in the oven at the same time, to save you time.
- Use the
time that you are wasting by watching the timer to wash your hands
and clean out the sink.
