I am a paranoid parent. I worry about everything when it comes to my kids. I don’t even like the idea of my 13 year old walking home from the bus stop by himself. I know I need to get over my fears that something bad will happen to them. They need to learn to be responsible and take care of themselves.
Usually my kids are only home for a few hours from time to time. My husband and I have been trying to go on “date nights” a couple of times a month. Usually we just go to the movies or out to dinner. We’re normally stay close to home too.
Last week was the first time my kids were home alone all day. I was out in Hollywood and my husband had to work.
I worried about my kids being home alone, especially when it came to making lunch. I didn’t want them to use the stove or oven. They are OK with the microwave so I told my husband to make sure they had something to make for lunch while I was gone. Thank goodness for Kraft Homestyle Macaroni & Cheese Microwaveable Bowls. My kids already know how to make the Kraft Mac & Cheese cups, but they don’t always fill them up. The new Kraft Homestyle Macaroni & Cheese Microwaveable Bowls offer a perfect adult size portion. I have a teenage son and he is eating us out of house and home so he needs a bigger portion size.
My kids can make they’re beloved macaroni & cheese in as little as 4 1/2 minutes.
The new Kraft Homestyle Macaroni & Cheese Microwaveable Bowls are so easy to prepare. Simply remove the lid, pour water to the fill line, add the tasty seasoning packet, stir and then place in the microwave for 4 1/2 minutes (microwave time can vary). After the microwave beeps carefully remove the macaroni & cheese from the microwave, add in the creamy Kraft cheese and stir it in well. Then top it all off with crunch breadcrumbs or bacon (depending on the flavor mac & cheese) and enjoy! It’s the perfect meal for one.
Kraft Homestyle Macaroni & Cheese Microwaveable Bowls are available in Sharp Cheddar & Bacon (my favorite), White Cheddar and Hearty Four Cheese.
My kids LOVE these. Not only because they are so simple to make but also because they enjoy the flavors. I think the Sharp Cheddar & Bacon is all our favorite flavor, but the other flavors are just as yummy.
I find the portion size to be “just right”. It’s not too much and not too little. It fills you up for lunch, especially when you include a small side salad and a piece of fruit.
I especially like how quick and easy it is to prepare. There is no mess to worry about cleaning up either. Simply rinse off the bowl and recycle or toss it into the garbage can. The most you’d have to wash is a spoon or fork (depending on what you eat it with).
They are also budget friendly. 🙂
My family gives Kraft Macaroni & Cheese Microwavable Bowls two thumbs up each. They are great to have on hand for a quick lunch or hearty snack. They are so simple to make that your kids can enjoy them just about any time too.
Look for the microwaveable bowls on a grocery store shelf near you.
