Ruby’s easy dinner recipe

1. Prepare a box of Mac&Cheese
2. Empty can of Chili in bowl and microwave
3. Mix the two together and start eating

mmmmm, that’s good. I just made it for the first time in a long time this past weekend.

On a side note: Has anyone seen the mac and cheese that’s vitamin fortified? I think it’s Creamette’s, but it’s been a while since I’ve seen it. If you have seen it, where can I find it

Mmmm… Mac & Cheese w/ sour cream and salsa. I prefer to make it myself, with decent noodles and REAL cheese, but the box stuff is good on a lazy, “I don’t feel like cooking” day.

Kraft alfredo Mac & Cheese isn’t even edible though.

[StonerJonLovitzon"Friends"]Oooh, we _have_ to make this![/SJLF]

Yumm, Kraft Dinner is the only food that gives me the Pavlovian reaction every time. _Al dente_ with a bit of extra milk. I gotta try that mixing with chili thing. The new Sharp Cheddar flavour rocks.

Is it true that Mercedes sends you a grille medalion when your car reaches 100 000 km, 250 000 km, 500 000, etc.? I want my 1000 boxes pin!
