Easy Weeknight Mac n Cheese

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at JHU chapter.

Sometimes on weeknights we are buried in work and don’t have the time or energy to prepare anything special.  Plus, let’s face it, we are college students and usually don’t want to spend the time or energy on any night.  Here is one of my favorite quick and easy dinners, and the best part is you can save half for the next day!

 

Easy Mac n Cheese:

 

  1. One box of Annie’s aged white cheddar shells

  2. One Trader Joe’s chicken and apple sausage

  3. ½ head of broccoli

 

I like to cook my macaroni on the stovetop, and in a separate saucepan I heat the chicken and apple sausage with a little bit of olive oil for about 5 minutes.  Once the sausage is heated, I steam my broccoli for about 5 minutes as well.  When the macaroni has finished cooking, I put them all together in a big bowl!
