(4 pack) Great Value Deluxe Original Cheddar Macaroni & Cheese, 14 oz (Shelf Stable Packaged Meal)

Easy peasey Mac %26 Cheesy, this tastes every bit as good as the leading brand. It was so easy to prepare this classic comfort food. About half the weight of the box is the foiled cheese sauce pouch. That cheese sauce is fairly salty, too. If a reduced salt diet is what you're on, this may not be the best choice. You can prepare it using a 700 watt microwave oven. I set mine for 10 minutes to cook the pasta. Then I waited about 5 extra minutes before removing it. Stirring in the cheese sauce was a breeze. Within 15 minutes, I was all set to enjoy a delicious classic comfort food.

This product has a good cheese sauce to macaroni ratio - it isn't super saucy, but it has enough to cover the macaroni and tastes cheesy. It would make a good base for a semi-homemade baked mac and cheese if you added a little milk and some shredded cheese. There is a good amount of product for the price - enough for three/four generous 'side dish' portions, and more than enough for when you sit down with a box of mac and cheese for dinner. (We've all done it at least once!) Perfect to have on hand for when you need a side but don't have milk or butter.
