Macaroni and Cheese
Macaroni and cheese is a classic American staple made from simple ingredients that anyone with access to a stove, microwave, or oven can make easily and quickly at home. Some varieties of macaroni and cheese, or mac 'n cheese as it's known casually, may be purchased in microwaveable packages, in boxes for cooking on the stovetop or in freezer trays for cooking in the microwave or oven.
How to make macaroni and cheese
Whether frozen or in a box, macaroni and cheese comes with specific directions on the packaging. Instructions will include how much of a given add-in ingredient to include, what format of cooking is required (microwave, oven, stovetop) and how long you should cook the meal.
Generally speaking, boxed macaroni on stove stop includes:
Boiling water
Adding pasta to the boiling water then cooking for 5 to 10 minutes until pasta reaches the al dente stage (slightly stiff but not hard/crunchy).
Draining the noodles.
Adding the provided sauce and add-in ingredients to the pan with the macaroni noodles and stirring together.

Additionally, you may wish to add toppings like bacon bits, green peas, fresh or dried herbs or green onions for added flavor.
