Recipe Instructions

Instructions:

At Sequoia:
1. Pack ingredients in separate zip-top bags.

In camp:
1. Boil macaroni noodles in large pot of boiling water until al dente, (8-10 min.) drain most of water, but leave enough to make a sauce with powdered milk and butter or oil.
2. On low heat, in a separate pot, stirring so it doesn't burn, mix boiling water into cheese sauce powder, until fully combined and smooth. It will thicken quite a bit in about 3 minutes.
3. Remove from heat and serve sauce over macaroni.
4. Add any toppings, like bacon bits or fresh veggies.

Note:
- You can use Ramen noodles in place of elbow macaroni, to shorten cooking time.
- Can use gluten free pasta or ramen noodles for gluten allergies.
