You could also use canned salmon instead of the tuna. I didn't know you could do Mac and Cheese this way. I am one of those people who thinks that the microwave is for reheating leftovers and warming coffee.

For a change, try some of those flavored tuna in packets. 1 box Kraft macaroni and cheese 2 cups hot water 1/4 cup hot milk ΒΌ cup butter 2 cans about 10 oz tuna packed in water 1 pkg highly flavored tuna (2-3 ounces optional) 1 can peas 1 can Pringles or equivalent amount of chips Microwave the macaroni in 2 cups water in a greased, covered dish for four minutes. Stir, turn and microwave another 4 minutes. DO NOT drain! Stir in the sauce packet and hot milk. Stir in the optional butter, preferably melted. Add the drained tuna and stir. Add the drained peas and stir. Crumble the chips in a zip-lock bag. Sprinkle on top and press down. Microwave now uncovered, for 4 minutes. Notes: If you use another brand of boxed mac and cheese such as Cracker barrel, you may need to reduce the liquid, especially if the sauce packet is gel and not powder. --Debee _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list [email protected] http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list [email protected] http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark
