One-Bowl Microwave Macaroni and Cheese
1/2 cup macaroni pasta
1/2 cup water
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup milk, any percent
1/4-1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese (or any other cheese that suits your fancy)
Combine the pasta, the water, and the salt in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on HIGH in
2-minute intervals until the pasta is cooked, stirring between each interval. This should take
about 6-8 minutes total. If the pasta absorbs all the water before the pasta is cooked, add another 2 tablespoons of water. Stir in the milk
and the cheddar cheese. Microwave on HIGH in 30-second intervals until the cheese has melted into a creamy sauce, stirring between
each interval and 1-1.5 minutes total. For a creamier sauce, add an extra tablespoon or two of milk and cheese.
