Kraft Macaroni, done fancy-style


Look at me, trying to make boxed macaroni into something fancy and grown-up. I'll be honest, I'm writing this up a month late and I'm trying to remember what I even put into this, but I'll do my best. Clearly I added a box of frozen spinach. I also recall adding liberal amounts of garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and chili powder. I also seem to recall adding in maybe half a brick of cream cheese—that went a long way toward making this taste of something besides the orange powder (which I did actually add, and it turned out to be much yummier when it was balanced by lots of other flavors).

I pretty much winged this, but it was pretty good. Would I serve this to company? Of course not. But it's nice knowing that those trashy boxes in my pantry can become slightly more interesting, and slightly more nutritious with those greens in there.
