Kraft is helping to feed America and you can be a part. Simply go to their Share a Little Comfort website and click on “click here to donate a free box”. It really only takes about 10 seconds to donate a box of macaroni and cheese. Kraft is donating 1,000,000 boxes to help feed America.

After you donate a box, you may want to print off the coupons. One of the coupons is for a free box of macaroni and cheese when you buy three boxes. Food Lion has their macaroni and cheese on sale right now for $.50/box so if you use the coupon, you can get four boxes for only $1.50.

I hope that you’ll take a moment to share a little comfort.

I had my heart set on Macaroni n Cheese with our ribs tonight but I didn’t have any in the cabinet. My stock pile isn’t anything like Karen’s tonight so I had to wing it. Turns out, I did a not so bad job and thought I would share it with you. My family liked it.

1 box 16 oz rotini noodles

1/4 c whipping cream

1 bag finely shredded cheddar cheese

1 tbs butter

salt and pepper to taste

Boil the noodles and drain. Mix the steaming noodles, whipping cream, butter, cheese, and seasonings. Enjoy. No baking needed!

Crock Pot Macaroni & Cheese Recipe

My husband really likes baked or slow cooked macaroni and cheese. He cannot stand the instant boxed kind. Today I was really glad that a friend sent this recipe to me for crock pot mac & cheese. Hope you enjoy!

1 – 8 oz. box of macaroni noodles, cooked and drained
3 c. grated cheddar cheese (use mild and/or sharp, according to taste)
3 eggs
1 lg. can evaporated milk
1 stick butter (melted)

Combine eggs, milk, and melted butter in mixing bowl. Pour over cooked and drained macaroni in crockpot. Stir. Add two cups of cheese and stir. Cover the top with remaining cup of cheese. Cook on low for 2 1/2 – 3 hours. Absolutely delicious!!

Another time saving tip: You may want to spray your crock pot with cooking spray before adding the ingredients. This will probably help with clean up time.

Here are some other macaroni & cheese recipes I found online. Good comfort food. Yummy!
