What's for supper?

What's for supper?

This was a question that both Jimmy and Irma asked me when Mom and Dad went shopping.

Well, since we didn't have any frozen pizzas,

I decided to venture out and try a new recipe.

 None of the recipes that I had on hand sounded good,

so I went on Pinterest

(oh...I just LOVE that place!)

 and found this recipe below.

 

 

 

Ingredients

1/3 cup pasta

1/2 cup water

1/4 cup milk

1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or somewheres round there, I'm a good Wisconsin girl and I didn't measure my cheese ;)

 

Directions

Place the pasta and water in a large coffee mug or bowl. Microwave on high for 2 minutes, then stir. Be prepared to have the water overflow while it is in the microwave. Repeat for at least 2-4 more minutes (when I made it, it took 8-10 minutes for the noodles to get done). If needed, you can add more water a teaspoon at a time. The water should absorb completely and the pasta will be cooked thoroughly.

Remove it from the microwave and stir in the milk and cheese. Microwave for 1 more minute. Stir in cheese and enjoy! (you can find the original recipe here)

 

What's for dessert?

That was the next question that I heard from them. So, again I went on Pinterest and found the following recipe for a single serve brownie.

 



 

Ingredients

1/4 cup flour

1/4 cup packed brown sugar

2 Tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder

a pinch of salt

2 Tbsp canola oil (or any other vegetable oil)

2 Tbsp milk, coffee, or water

 

Directions

In a heatproof mug, stir together the dry ingredients until no lumps remain. Stir in the oil and milk until you have a thick paste.

Microwave on high for a minute, checking it after 30 seconds - it will be done when it's springy on top but still a bit gooey. Top with ice cream and eat warm. Enjoy! (you can find the original recipe here )
