Exactly. I've never quite understood boxed mac & cheese. The reason for this is the steps are exactly the same. Think about it. For either one, you still boil the pasta and drain it. You still add butter & milk and cheese (albeit powdered cheese in the boxed mix) and stir it all together. With either one you can then just eat it or you can place it in a lightly greased casserole, top with some breadcrumbs and bake it until bubbly and lightly browned on top. (I prefer mine baked.)kitchenelf said:How about homemade mac and cheese? It really isn't that hard. It can be as simple as grating some cheddar (or even Velveeta) or tearing slices of American cheese in some just al dente macaroni and add some butter and milk though half and half or cream works well too (salt and pepper of course). Stirring until melted and combined.

- Tuna AND Green Peas
- Bush's Baked Beans (Sounds Crazy, but very good)
- Hamburger (Crazy, I know).
Another thing I like to add for texture is crushed potato chips. Just personal preference.
