    Thank you I tried this last night and it was magical. My 16 yr old can do this while we are not home and we don't have to worry about the house being burnt down. lol

    Can this recipe be doubled. Also should I stir the macaroni because I’m worried about getting the food burn notice.

    • @MelanieCooksRecipes
      @MelanieCooksRecipes  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I haven’t tried doubling it, but I think it can. Use 2 packages of macaroni and just enough water to cover the macaroni. The cooking time remains the same. No stirring needed.

      I make 4 boxes at a time (Annie's) I shortcut even more...I add the butter on (Saute) then add noodles...then the cheese packets and then enough water to cover the noodles so none are showing. I cook (manual) for 3 or 4 minutes then stir it all up. No burn notice. Works perfectly every time. You could add a couple of cans of tuna and a bag of frozen peas at the end of cook time for a yummy tuna casserole.
