This Mac N' Cheeseburger is Just for You

After long day of school and work, I just want to lie down with Netflix and eat some comfort food. And if you're like me, there is nothing better than mac n' cheese or a burger. So I combined both to create a mac n' cheeseburger for just you. It's good for your tummy and your soul with a little help from Baking Mischief for the single-serving mac n' cheese.

Single-Serving Mac N' Cheeseburger

• Prep Time:10 mins
• Cook Time:20 mins
• Total Time:30 mins
• Servings:1
• Easy

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup macaroni
• 1 tablespoon salted butter
• 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1/2 cup sharp cheddar cheese
• 1/2 lb ground beef
• 1/4 cup onions
• 1/4 cup ketchup
• 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
• Salt and pepper
• Bread any kind

• Step 1

  Gather all ingredients. Make sure red meat is defrosted or this will take a lot longer than you want. Bring a small pot to boil and make pasta according to the box. Once cooked set aside and cover to keep warm.

  

• Step 2

  Grab the ground beef. If you don't eat a lot, then only use 1/4 pound. Cook ground beef in a skillet and drain grease once cooked. While the meat is cooking, sautée the onions and add it to the meat. Mix in garlic powder, salt, pepper and ketchup.

  

• Step 3

  Melt butter over a medium heat stove, whisk in flour until it becomes a thick golden paste (less than one minute). Then whisk in milk slowly until it gets thick and starts bubbling (2 to 5 minutes). Take off stove and mix in the cheese until it melts completely.

  

• Step 4

  If the noodles or meat are cold, put it in the microwave for a few seconds. Then combine meat, cheese and pasta.

  

• Step 5

  Throw that heavenly mixture on some bread.

  

I can't resist the mac n' cheeseburger with its ooey, gooey cheese and savory meat. Sometimes I throw on some bacon bits to add spice to my life.

Next time you're in the mood for some happy tummy foods, make this. It's easy, cheap and you won't be eating leftovers for days.
