I almost puked while preparing this from the smell alone. Went to the trash after two bites.

    Not true.
    As with loaded ramen, it takes very little effort to make this kind of meal.

    Yeah, it might seem complicated for a first-timer, but if you simply experiment a couple times, you’ll hit on a personalised, tasty hot snack that you can pretty much make in your sleep.

      Making a real meal doesn’t take much effort also. Your talking about preparing boxed mac and cheese as if it’s real cooking.

        That’s meaningless without an example, and just dodges the point of what I’m saying.

        A “real meal” could be almost anything. Last night for example I was in the mood for french fries. So I spiralised a large potato, soaked it in two cold water baths (IYKYK), pressed, drained, brushed with oil, then spent about three 10min intervals air-frying and carefully turning & separating, repeat. Finally seasoning them and enjoying them.

        Guess how much more effort that took than doing the loaded mac & cheese?
