Kid friendly and EXTREMLY simple (also cheap)

So one thing all mil spouses deal with is how to feed the brood without going bankrupt, which is a challenge (esp when you have 2 human garbage disposals to feed like I do). Mac n Cheese is a major staple in this house but plain Mac n Cheese wont cut it for my meat and potatoes hubby...the answer is add meat! On rotation is Chilli Mac (chilli sans the beans), Taco Mac (taco meat), Chicken Veggie Mac (Can of chicken with a bag of corn & peas). Newest item in the rotation....
Country Sausage Mac
Brown a pound of country sausage add it to a cooked thing of mac n cheese. Then add a bag of cooked peas and dinner is ready :D


Also for dessert.... Blueberry 2 ingredient cake :D
Take 1 box of Angel Food Cake mix and add 1 can of Blueberry pie filling (any berry filling is OK)
then bake according to the package directions (do NOT add anything else to the mix!)
BTW the box will say that it isnt done until the crack in it is dry...that doesnt apply here
finished product:


serve with cool whip :D
