Microwave mac and cheese is pretty simple: make sure the waterline is above the pasta and cook for about three minutes longer than the box's instructions. The key is using a large, deep bowl, because the water will almost definitely boil over if you don't. If all you have is a small bowl, just layer some paper towels underneath to minimize cleanup. The bowl will be HOT, so either use a potholder or wait 10 minutes to remove from the microwave. Strain and add the cheese packet or some cheddar and a splash of milk if you're feeling crafty.
