Mac and cheese

I don't understand people ripping boxed mac-and-cheese kits away from other people. Yeah, every food item is flying off of shelves because of social distancing and self quarantines (or just plain greed), but if there isn't boxed variations available, is it too much to ask that they make it from scratch?  Don't they know how super easy it is to make?!?

Instructions:

Boil pasta.

Drain.
Put back in bowl.

Add butter and grated cheese.

Stir until heat from pasta melts the butter and cheese.

Eat.

Sure, there are other ways to make it, other ingredients you could add, but still...come on!!

Pasta From Preps

While I work in my upcoming book, "Preparing for Health Situations" (yes, pandemic preparedness is a big part in the book), I have spent some time and money reviewing my own preps and adding what I found lacking.

Because of that, I thought I would make my son some mac-and-cheese from my preps tonight. Here is the recipe:

-shell pasta (or any kind)

-butter powder

-parmesan cheese

-bacon crumbles

Super simple. Cook the pasta, drain, and while still really hot, add the butter powder (or real butter), parmesan cheese, bacon crumbles and toss.

I add parsley to mine, but my son doesn't like that.

A nice lettuce, carrot and cabbage salad rounded out the meal.

This recipe will also be included in my upcoming "Instant Homemade Healthy MREs" book.

Enjoy!

P.S. My son, who is a picky eater, loved this!!
