Our Five Star Deluxe Meal :)


Okay so yes, I am addicted to sweet treats, but on Saturday I was kind of sweeted out and so Camber, Kaylee, and I decided to make something for a rainy day. Let me tell you, it was pouring cats and dogs on Saturday. We decided to have home made macaroni and cheese, bread sticks with Alfredo sauce, and a smoothie. BREAD STICKS- Step 1 : you can use any kind of pre-made dough to make these. We used Rhodes Rolls.



BREAD STICKS- Step 2: we had to defrost ours because they had been in the freezer, we just stuck them in the microwave until it was soft enough to roll.




BREAD STICKS3: Roll out into strips and place on/in a pan whatever you prefer. Then melt butter or margarine and spread on bread sticks, there shouldn't be ton, but not too little either because you have to be able to have a spice stay on it.





BREAD STICKS- Step 3: Put Italian Seasoning on top and then stick in the oven as directed on the back of your package, or until done.

ALFREDO SAUCE: Well I had a picture of the ingredients, but it didn't upload right, so we just made some home made Alfredo sauce from scratch from a recipe we found online. It turned out perfect for dipping our bread sticks in.







HOME MADE MACARONI AND CHEESE- Step 1: You can either boil your water in a pan and whatnot, or a really cool way that a friend showed me was to fill up a microwaveable bowl with water, put your noodles in and place in the microwave for 10-15 minutes or until done. It takes a lot less work, and then you don't have to wash as many pots and pans (of course a teenager like me would think of that kind of stuff).





HOME MADE MACARONI AND CHEESE- Step 2: The sauce-- This sauce is really easy to make.

Ingredients: 1 tbsp. butter, 1 tbsp. flour, 3/4 cup of milk, cheese of your choice. (I like to use cheddar, or mixed cheddar, and mozzarella).


1. Put your tbsp. butter in pan over the stove and melt

2. When your butter is melted stick in the tbsp. flour and mix

3. When your butter and flour is all clumped up then pour in the 3/4 C. milk and stir until it comes to a boil and all of the buttery flour chunks are gone.

4. Add the cheese until it is cheesy enough for you.

HOME MADE MACARONI AND CHEESE- Step 4: I like to put salt and pepper on the noodles to add more flavor, but it is a personal preference.




SMOOTHIE- Step 1: I don't really have a recipe for our smoothie, we just stuck in some mixed fruit, milk orange juice, pretty much anything we could find and wanted in our smoothie. It turns out great every time though.



FINAL RESULT: And our final result is this beautiful meal. It was delicious, hope you enjoy it as much as we did.
