Prep time: 2 mins | Cook Time: 5 mins | Serves: 1

đź›’ Ingredients

  • Pasta: 1/2 cup elbow macaroni
    • Liquid: 1/2 cup water (hot from the kettle works best!)
  • Dairy: 1/4 cup milk (whole or 2% recommended)
  • Cheese: 1/2 cup shredded cheddar (or a pre-portioned packet)
  • Optional: A pinch of salt, pepper, or breadcrumbs for crunch

🛠️ Equipment

  • 1 Large microwave-safe bowl (ceramic or glass)
  • 1 Spoon
  • Electric Kettle (optional, for faster boiling)

đź“ť Instructions

  1. Hydrate: Combine the macaroni and water in your bowl.
  2. The First Blast: Microwave on high for 2 minutes. Stir well.
  3. The Second Blast: Microwave for another 2-3 minutes until the water is mostly absorbed and the pasta is tender. (Careful—the bowl will be hot!)
  4. The Meltdown: Stir in the milk and cheese. Mix vigorously until the cheese is melted and the sauce is creamy.
  5. Finish: Add a pinch of salt/pepper. Let it sit for 1 minute to thicken before eating.
