All I can think of when you call it Kraft Dinner is the Barenaked Ladies:

If I had a million dollars

We wouldn't have to eat Kraft Dinner

But we would eat Kraft Dinner

Of course we would, we?d just eat more

And buy really expensive ketchups with it

That?s right, all the fanciest ke... dijon ketchups!

Mmmmmm, Mmmm-Hmmm

And as far as I know, it still tastes the same though. That could be because I eat Kraft Macaroni & Cheese, not Kraft Dinner...lol

I might have to go make some...

Kraft Macaroni & Cheese and Kraft Dinner are the same

[Draconian Guppy]

+1 They've probably taken all the bad stuff that gave it great taste to avoid lawsuits :p

Haha, I know...

I was just giving you a hard time because of the what they call it in Canada...

I learned long ago to tweak Kraft Mac & cheese, for maximum heart-clogging fatage. :woot:

1. Ignore box directions

2. Boil enuff of the noodles as you plan to eat.

I just make hot water in the microwave using a ceramic bowl, then add macaroni and let it soak a while, then drain.

3. Slice up a small box of Velveeta cheese, or as much as you need to make the noodles creamy.

Don't over do it.

4. Mix in some of the 'cheese' sauce package along with the noodles & Velveeta.

5. Melt in the microwave until reasonably hot.

I sprinkle on a bit more of the cheese sauce powder on top, after it's done.

I don't use up the entire package of the Kraft cheesy powder at once -- usually it lasts me several times making mac & cheese.

Of course you will need to vary the amount of Velveeta and powder you use, depending on servings and guests you have.

Maybe there are better recipies for mac & cheese, but I'll strongly argue with you. :p

Good to know we have TV Dinner experts on the forum :|

It's gross to be honest. We don't make the stuff from the box, if we want a cheesy pasta meal then Flish makes it and then it's amazing.

All those steps - why not just make a decent macaroni cheese? It takes, what? 15 mins?

[+shift. MVC]

There's always those frozen TV dinner macaroni and cheeses...

I find those a bit cheezier, but their portions aren't big enough cause I'm an eating machine. :D

[abecedarian paradoxious]

I usually add 1/4 cup bleu cheese or ranch dressing instead of milk.

EasyMac tastes so much better than the regular stuff. Seriously.

[Simon Veteran]

I use Cheese Whiz, makes it cheesier. One spoonful of that plus the classic Kraft Dinner recipe, and you're in artificial cheese and possible death heaven.

Wow... I have never had a Kraft Dinner. :blink:

[ralph_tran]

I had a box of Kraft Mac & Cheese laying around in the pantry from 2006... I figured it was safe to eat because everything is freeze-dried or whatever. I made it and when I stirred in the cheese packet, it turned an orange-brown color... I actually tried some.. :x

[majortom1981]

Its better to make your own.

1lb pasta, 1 block ny cheddar,1 can of the cheddar cambles stuff , and 2 cans of milk (using the can left over from the cheddar cheese)

gets yo ua dinner for 2-4 and enough to take to work for the next day.

cost me about 4 dollars or so.

[Mike Frett]

I can make (and do) KFC's Mac and Cheese. Tastes just like it.

sounds like a fine bachelor dinner to me!

For some reason the original tastes like crap now.

Yes I have eaten it for years, and it never tasted different.

I just gave up on the original brand.

Now moved to the White Cheddar and 3 Cheese Shells.

And how did it taste? :wacko:

[Simon Veteran]

If you're going the real Mac and Cheese route, which I recommend if you're willing to make it, sprinkle corn flakes on top and cover them with another light layer of cheese. It creates a nice crispy "layer" on top. You honestly need to try it if you haven't already.

disagree.

Use a lot of butter, yum!
