Using only a microwave, we bust out an easy pasta (yes you can cook pasta in the microwave) Thai ramen noodles, a baked potato and a super simple one minute egg & bacon bagel sandwich. Booya!

It’s day one of ‘Freshman Food Week’ and we turn everyday microwave mac & cheese into 5 most excellent meals.

What doesn’t a poached egg make better?  And it makes this effing great.  It’s lunch, it’s dinner, it’s anything you want it to be.  BTW, bucatini is merely hollow spaghetti-like pasta.  The recipe is here.

Once again I find myself alone. So pull up a chair, pour yourself a drink, relax & hang out with me while we chat common cooking problems.

It’s simple and delightful – if you can call a pasta delightful.
