/ck/ - Food & Cooking

Please stop

nothing it's perfect as is. sike.

Spam, diced and fried. It's a bit salty but great drunk food. Bacon and ham also work of course.
Blue cheese
Sliced jalapenos
Whole pitted black olives
Chili con carne (just a hint of it - I find the best way is to just cook the macaroni and cheese in an unwashed saucepan that you very recently cooked the chili in)
A plate of cream crackers - Spooning the Mac & cheese onto them as a topping

And I've never tried it with tuna but my Mum used to make a great tuna cheese pasta dish she called "Tuna Bake" so maybe it could work. That was with fusilli pasta, tomato, sweetcorn, so more of a casserole I think. It was finished in the oven for a crispy cheese topping.

Cut up hotdogs

Cracker Barrel Havarti Mac & Cheese (Bag with the seasoning package, not the box without) is the best I've had that doesn't need anything else.

Just like hamburger helper, a lb of well-browned ground sirloin crumbles, can be folded into a prepared box of mac n cheese at the end. Brown some onion with the hamburger, or a sprinkle of green onion at the end. To add crunch to the top, much as you'd get with a casserole of mac, in a small nonstick, you can melt some butter, and toast some fresh breadcrumbs, parm or other shredded cheese, and herbs of your choice. I might add some Tony Cachere's seasoning into this mix. You could run it under the broiler if you don't want to toast on the stove top.

Brown some bacon, crumble on top.
Brown some leftover ham steak or roast ham, serve on top or stir in.

I always add real cheese to make it cheesier and cumin because my chili powder is never hot enough.

If Danish mac & cheese is like Swedish mac & cheese, then I don't think they are in any way an authority on the subject

>>16556086
Any cheesy dish is made better with peas.

A mountain of black pepper

Add garlic salt and broccoli and a wedge of lemon

>>16556086
you add it to the bin and then buy this stuff, cope all you want, but the cheese product sludge is scientifically designed to BTFO that dried shit

For me, it's Kraft White Cheddar with blueberries and a pinch of cinnamon sugar.

Sautée garlic, broccoli, mushrooms, maybe some peas and diced bell pepper. Add some garlic and onion powder, dash of black pepper and maybe a pinch of cayenne.

Add mac, some diced chicken breast (typically roasted, prepped in advance), and stir until thoroughly warmed through. Might add a little chicken broth so the cheese doesn't burn, although typically not an issue if the burner is med-low. Cover with lid for added moisture.

I like Annie's white/Alfredo cup, so sometimes I add a dusting of parmesan or save a 1/4tsp of the seasoning packet to top my entire dish once plated.

Pic related was same dish except steak, zucchini, arugula instead of chicken/veg

>>16557209
Based 10/10 meal

>>16557209
Impressive.
Crackhead approved/10.

a spoonful of cream cheese when the powder, milk and noodles are combined add a little extra bite & creamy consistency to the boxed stuff.
I like a little extra pepper from the grinder, my grandpa ate his with a shitload of ketchup, half the plate was MnC the other half was a lake of ketchup.
And yes, grandma was a horrible cook.

Thanks lads highly recommend if you have the time to prep

My 4 year old likes a little heavy cream and butter when I mix the flavor pouch.

Corn and peas

why the fuck are you eating mac and cheese over the age of 12

anybody ever add tomato based spaghetti sauce to mac&cheese?

>>16556086
I might get flak for this but a nice hot dog Mac and cheese is really nostalgic for me. memere grew up in France (left after her govt was ousted in 1944)and often made this for me

My mom would add barbecue sauce and call them "nigger noodles"

Scallions

>>16557684
Because it's delicious.

>>16558436
