D41: Tuna, Pea Mac & Cheese

This summer heat has me not wanting to cook a whole lot,
even while Chuck is out of the house. So for this meal I am sharing one of my
favorite all purpose cheat meals. I call it an all purpose cheat meal, because it’s
so dang easy, you can make it on a stove top, in a microwave, or over a
campfire, and well coming mostly prepackaged it’s not the healthiest, but I could
do worse. I’ve done it probably every way.

Microwave/easy mac: I would suggest either using half the
tuna and pea or doubling the easy mac for a balanced meal.

For backpacking: I usually like Velveeta. I know that
draining the water has some people discouraged but I just bring some hot cocoa
mix, and drain the excess water into my nalgene. It works to stop the waste and
is a tasty treat.

On a side note I was featured today on my friend Heathers
blog Run Like a G! She is currently running a promo to help other small blog
get some love. When I say friend I mean real life friend, we’ve met several
times in real life, through one of my high school besties Amanda. Heather
mostly blogs about running, and her path to finding herself, with finding a teaching
job, getting healthy, being married, and all that other stuff that goes into
life. She’s really good at writing about her emotions and really showing the
world who she is.
