Macaroni and Cheese

[Jodi1980]

Do you add any meat (diced ham, hamburger, etc) to your Macaroni and Cheese?

 

[grinningghost]

Nope. I like mine boring.

The kids like hot dogs

I love mac and cheese and the only meat type thing I put in it occasionally is tuna but always have to put a dallop of sour cream in it it just brings the cheese flavor out a bit more.

my DH likes ham added in.

 

[Mimi Q]

No.

If it's a side dish generally no,
but sometimes add stewed tomatoes
(that's big on PA menus, too).

If it's main course, like lunch,
I'll add diced hot dogs (DH likes it).

Wanna know a delicious way to use
leftover macs & cheese?
Add them to scrambled eggs (in the pan)
the next morning - yummy!

I used to mix a can of chili in it.

I have also mixed in tuna.

Now I just eat it plain.

When I was a kid, my mom put tuna in it. I never liked heated canned tuna, I always preferred it cold like in a tuna salad sandwich. We would also have Hamburger Helper-type stuff with ground beef. I never liked that either. I always wanted my mac-and-cheese plain.

Now, of course, it's all moot 'cuz I don't eat meat. I should try putting broccoli in it. That would taste good.

meat and mac and cheese - ew, no! but i do like ketchup on it.

 

[Beth76]

as a side, I don't add anything (except garlic powder). Sometimes, for dinner I'll make Velveeta Cheeseburger Macaroni by adding ground beef and BBQ sauce to Shells and Cheese. Yummy!

 

[Pooh67_68]

Yes my husband likes ham in Mac and cheese, I just pick it out.

 

[HisEllyNelly]

Nope, kids like it plain and I wont eat it. I dont know why I wont eat it, I like cheese and I like pasta...makes no sense. I think its from my moms homemade stuff which she made with sharp cheddar so it had a real strong taste, and being a child of the 70's was told to sit there and eat it or you cant get down from the table.Used to gag through the whole meal.

My mother used to make it with Velveeta, then she would take cubed bread, mix it with melted butter and then put it on top to make a crunchy topping.

HOw to I make it? Fat free cheese, skim milk, no bread...

low carb pasta.... probably much more healthy but no where near as delicious.

I do that all the time. Come to think of it, everyone I know puts Ketchup on their mac and cheese. Maybe its a Canadian thing? Even the commercials for Kraft dinner have people putting ketchup on their mac and cheese.

Whatever the kid don't eat I'll add hot dogs and salsa and bring it to work the next day. I won't eat it plain and too cheap to toss it.

Although I haven't eaten any in quite a while, I prefer mine plain....the kids like hot dogs in theirs.
