Macaroni and cheese

Now that's a typical American food. Almost everyone have their own version of mum's macaroni and cheese. There's also the Kraft 50 cents one up to the ones in the classy restaurant that costs USD8-9. Ping used to like them quite a bit until Ping started working in Burnham Hall. Everyday see until sien edi. Somemore they like to flood it with cheese and the pans are so hard to clean!!!

But every once in a while, Ping would get them from Meijer. Each box comes with macaroni and a packet of cheddar cheese (seems to be the favorite cheese here because they use it for almost everything, including a dip for broccoli!!! AND a topping for white rice!!! Gila right?).

Few weeks back when Ping was busy preparing for committee meeting, didn't have time to cook so Ping got a box of mac and cheese. Chopped some tomatoes and sliced some sausage (or as they call it here, hot dog). Bought some sliced carrots too (too lazy to slice it *bleh*).

Boiled the macaroni, drain the water, heat up a pan and stir fry the macaroni, tomato, sausage and carrot until it is slightly soft and there's some juice from the tomato. Then dissolve the cheese powder in the 'juice' and fry until it is partially dry ---> that's 3 day's punya lunch!!
