When I was in university I made my own creation: Poor Man's Tuna Casserole. I'm a terrible and lazy chef.

Step 1: Make a batch of Mac-n-Cheese (KD or offbrand KD if you're Canadian).

Step 2: Add a can of tuna (or a portion of a can if you are poor ๐Ÿ˜‰)

Bon appetit!

Mac and cheese is such a great base for meals! We do the same, and sometimes with burger. We often add peas to the tuna version, and onion to the burger version.

This is a really great suggestion! Once you have the mac & cheese, you can create a bunch of different dishes!

Also, my wife can't have dairy, and we found a fantastic vegan mac & cheese by a company called Daiya. In our opinion, they've got the best-tasting dairy substitutes. They have a vegan cheddar cheese sauce and an alfredo sauce that's really good, and also make standard mac & cheese boxes for quick-and-easy.

Americans tend to think if mac & cheese as unhealthy comfort food, but it's a great basis for a variety of dishes.

+1 on your suggestion!
