Mac & Cheese in a Cup

Instant Mac & Cheese in a Mug

WHAT YOU WILL NEED

• 1/3 cup small macaroni elbow noodles (uncooked)
• a scant 1/2 cup water
• a scant 1/4 cup milk
• 1/2 cup pre-packaged finely shredded cheese (we like a cheddar/jack blend)

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Put the macaroni and the water into a mug. Microwave on full power for 2 minutes. Stir. (Note: the water will boil over just a bit, that is fine)
2. Microwave for another minute. Stir. 
3. Microwave for a fourth minute, and then check to see that all the water has been absorbed. If not, microwave a bit more, until it is gone.
4. Stir in the milk and shredded cheese and microwave for a final 30-60 seconds. Stir well, and enjoy.

NOTES

If you are grating your own cheese, try adding a pinch (1/8 tsp) of cornstarch to the milk.
