Pressure cookers are only to be used by an adult! **One strict caution** do not leave this for the kids to make on their own.
#MACARONI INSTANT POT MAC#
It takes 10 minutes of your time and you’ll be able to pronounce all of the ingredients on their dinner plate! Instant Pot Mac and Cheese takes about the same amount of effort as cooking mac and cheese on the stove from a box, except it won’t boil over, and tastes about 100 times better! Also, if you have dry food storage, you most likely have a case or two of dry macaroni that’s begging to be opened and used. Next time you want to feed the kids a meal before heading out on date night, whip up this mac and cheese. The Best Instant Pot Mac and Cheese is a dream meal on a busy night. You won’t notice the spices much if you follow the recommended amounts, but without any spices, the mac and cheese is a little blah! One Pot Mac and Cheese in 20 minutes (or less) If you like a little more of a kick add the cayenne and another 1/2 teaspoon of dry mustard (for 1 teaspoon total of the dry mustard). It will give the dish little interest without being spicy. Yes, even if you are cooking for children, add the paprika and 1/2 teaspoon of dry mustard. You’ll end up with a big bowl of bland, cheesy pasta! Finally, I cannot say enough about adding a few spices. Never, ever make mac and cheese with mild cheddar. I highly recommend sharp cheese for the best flavor in mac and cheese. Make sure you are using Evaporated milk, not Sweetened Condensed milk, which are basically processed the same, but the sweetened condensed has sugar added. I no longer buy the blue box because my kids no longer request it.Evaporated milk, or canned milk is simply milk that has been cooked at a high temperature and high pressure to remove water from the milk… less water equals a smoother sauce. After a few tweaks (the first version was an epic fail), this recipe came about and is a new favorite! Tender pasta covered in a cheese sauce that will have any mouth watering! Made in under 10 minutes, perfect for lunch or dinnertime! Say what?!?! I was blown away! Homemade macaroni….for lunch….in under ten minutes?!?! Sign me up! After asking her for her recipe and realizing I had little to none of the ingredients needed, I set out to make my own version. One afternoon, as I was browsing through the group, I saw a lady post about making her children macaroni and cheese for her kids lunch in under ten minutes. I joined the Instant Pot community group on Facebook once I purchased my Instant Pot because I needed recipes, inspiration, and support because lets face it, pressure cookers don’t have a good rep and I have watched my share of “Breaking Bad” episodes, haha! Plus, truth be told, when I thought of “homemade macaroni and cheese”, I thought of a lot of work involved! Little did I know I was oh so wrong! Yes, I read all of the articles about how this can give you that, and this is bad for you because of that reason, but at the end of the day, I grew up on it and turned out just fine, so never really gave it two thoughts. Whether making it for lunch, dinner, adding in ground hamburger, or serving it as a side to their hot dogs it was always around. Having little kids, the blue box of macaroni and cheese had always been a staple in my house. During the summer, when we spend our days at the pool, I don’t have to race home and dinner prep because I know I can whip something up quickly!
