Quick One Pot Mac and Cheese with Peas
Take a box of prepared mix (We use Amy's Organic, which has extra-small elbow noodles--they cook in 6 to 8 minutes). Measure out a cup of frozen green peas. When you pour the noodles in the boiling water set the timer for 3 minutes. Pour the frozen peas in and set the timer for 3 minutes. Check the noodles and peas. If not done, keep checking every minute until ready. Pour into collender, make the sauce in the pan, mix everything togetherr et voila! C'est fini. Mark loves this dish.
Other News You Can USe about this dish: You can make it without butter to get calories down. Giving it a few grinds of fresh pepper helps with the flavor. The peas give it some vegetable and protein. Some hostess in a 1980s cookbook swears that she takes boxed mac and cheese with light tuna stirred in to potlucks and people polish it off. I haven't tried it and am not sure whether it would work for 2020 tastebuds. But. It is what it is. :-)
