Add hot sauce. I like Crystal and Frank's.
I'm not stupid, a marauder just shot my brain.

Fast for a day or so, then enjoy! Hot sauce works pretty well too... Honestly I don't have a good answer, I still have three sitting in my dorm room from last semester T.T

Bacon and zucchini is a good combination, as is chicken and broccoli. Cayenne pepper should perk it up a bit, too. If you're really adventurous, try some chopped apples. It's not my preference, but some people really love the combination of flavors.

20 minute Mac and Cheese with lots for leftovers, maybe.

1. Begin melting 4 tablespoons of butter in a pan over low-medium heat, add in 4 tablespoons of flour halfway through the melting process and let them cook together(stirring constantly) for a few minutes.
2. Add 2 cups of warm milk(or cream if you are a skinny bastard) and whisk it over medium heat until it begins to simmer and thicken.
3. Throw in some of that spice shit(I like salt, pepper, mustard powder, chili flakes and Worcestershire sauce)
4. Add grated sharp cheddar and/or whatever other cheese you like. This white sauce can take a lot of cheese, so play around with however much you like.
5. Stir in your cooked pasta and A) Eat it as it is because it's already delicious, or B) Bake it in the oven with some breadcrumbs(preferably panko and some seasoning on top, like a snowstorm of chili flakes because you are a fucking manly man.)
6. Spend the next month making this and only this.

To avoid this situation in the future i suggest you stop buying "Mac n' cheese" and start getting "Velveta shells and cheese" , real cheese, real good. None of that powder crap. Use the scalloped potato / tortilla crumb baked topping trick and serve it with a side of green beans.
Some see the glass half full, others half empty. I think the glass is just too big.

I'm pretty sure he explicitely stated that he needed advise for making it without the use of an oven though.

Not possible, imo. Some things just can't be salvaged.

I experimented a lot with mac n cheese a lot last year in college. I would use any of the following in various combinations and it always turned out better than just plain old mac n cheese.

- Pepper
- Salt
- Ranch Dressing (YES! SO good!)
- Chicken (cut it up into smallish pieces)
- scrambled eggs
- Hot sauce (Tapatio)
- Peas
- A1 sauce (don't knock it before you try it :D )
- Bacon (microwaveable kind)
- Steak
- Tuna
- hamburger meat

For the meat products you can just microwave them until cooked fully, or even buy a bag of pre-cooked meat pieces that you can just heat up.
Can't remember any more but give it a shot!

Add 1 quarter stick of butter, and 1/4 cup of milk. Stir it in until it's mixed up pretty well, and then eat it. I think it tastes pretty good.
Oh also, don't cook it in the microwave.

This right here. Instead of sacrificing the pasta in one I just melt some real cheese in though. I use some kind of Safeway brand Mac and Cheese which is actually fantastic though so I don't know how it compares to anything else since I'm addicted to it.

Oh, and when I was a kid my dad would make Mac an Cheese with some Bovril in it and that was pretty good too, but I'm sure most boulion type stuff would help.

If you are wanting to add some protein to it use Ham (all these people suggesting hot dogs, ewww) Use a good real meat, just add some strips of cooked ham to it, it would play well with the cheese, much more so than a...hot dog =/
