You're here either because you love me, awful food, both, or you hate me, awful food or both.
Regardless of the reason, you're here now, and that makes you an accomplice whether you like it or not! Our bond is unbreakable, because this dish will astound and terrify! It's not safe to go alone!
I present to you, NYDMC (Nidmac, if you prefer!)
I came up with this while experimenting with Mac and Cheese. Just the same old junk is too generic. Too predictable.
BOOOOOOOOORRRRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIING!
So I made it better! With this delicious, heart-stopping dish, you won't know which way is up! Will it send your tastebuds on a creamy, cheesy journey? Build some tastebuds character with a bacony crunch? Or will it sucker punch you in your stupid jaw with surprise buffalo fire? Always expect the unexpected!
Its a love hate relationship you'll always crawl back to.
Here's what you need:
-Macaroni (Obvious! Any will do)
-Cheeses: I used velveeta and ground pepper jack, but if you like a runnier cheese you can always use those kraft cheese powder packs. You can get creative here, really. Use your favorite!
-Blue cheese (crumbled would be best)
-Bacon (Canadian, turkey, whatever you have on hand or prefer)
-Chicken (raw would be best, though if you're not sure of yourself I won't tell if you use pre-cooked)
-Buffalo flavoring (I use Frank's Red)
-Mixed veggies (Once again, preference! I used shredded carrots and celery)
-Pepper (If desired)
-A strong soul (Yours, champ!)
Its a lot of multitasking, so make sure you have a good amount of space.
First, you'll want to cut up your veggies and prepare your cheeses. Easy! Just don't cut yourself. Blood has an iron-y taste and ruins the flavor.
You should start with the chicken. If it's pre-cooked, follow those boring instructions instead. If not, you'll want to get cutting again. Have a pan hot and ready to go so once you get the chicken into small enough cubes to eat whole, you can toss them in. Once you do, make sure to keep an eye on them! You want to get all the red cooked out, but don't over do it! Once you feel you have it at a point you're comfortable with (and fully cooked, don't mess around) you can put the chicken in a bowl and save it for later.
Once that's done, you can turn up the heat! Of your stove! Bring some water to a boil and toss your macaroni in there. Bonus points if you slam dunk it without burning yourself! Make sure to constantly stir and watch it to make sure you don't burn them, which would suck. If you have to, turn the heat down.
When they're finished, drain the macaroni and set it aside. Add your cheeses and stir until they're thoroughly melted and mixed!
Next, the bacon! Bacon is fairly quick to cook, and to what point is by preference. HOWEVER. If you want an easier time cutting it for the Mac and cheese, you'll want it crispy. Once it's done, turn off the stove! Collect your bacon and crumble it up into little pieces. As small as you can manage, or to whatever you prefer.
The last steps are simple. Add the buffalo to your chicken, then add the bacon and veggies and chicken to the macaroni! If you need to, throw the whole thing back on the stove real quick to melt the cheese again and give it all a quick stir.
Then, you're done! Wahoo!
Analysis: No this is not good for me. It might be good for you but not for me. It IS delicious though. I just need to keep in mind to have the hospital on speed dial. And I need to look up US law to see if it's legal to marry food anywhere.
Would you be shocked? I wouldn't.
