I make the most fattening mac&cheese, but it is delicious.

2T corn starch
2c half&half (or 1 cup milk, 1 cup whipping cream)
8oz cream cheese
8oz block of colby jack, grated
1lb elbow macaroni
Spices to taste (I use salt, pepper, allspice, nutmeg, paprika, oregano, and some nutritional yeast)

Boil the elbow macaroni until it's al dente. Whisk together the spices, corn starch and half&half, bring to a simmer. Melt the cream cheese into the sauce, then add in the grated cheese. Stir the noodles into the sauce.

If you undercook the noods a little, it holds up really well as meal prep for a week of lunches. My partner is chronically underweight, so it's nice to have some calorie dense meal prep options too.

I'm very scared of your two-tonne corn starch mac

And you have to discover FTL travel for the half-and-half.

(it's tablespoons, if anybody is genuinely confused)
