As Mrs. Housil loves "hot stuff" (see me

) she had a:
Mexican Macaroni & Cheese for dinner
very spicy and highly recommanded by her
For some reason, Mexican Macaroni was issued 2006 with Chicken Breast, but changed in 2007 to Beef Patty (instead of Western Beans).
Chicken Breast come now with 2007 issued Corn Bread Stuffing

Did you heat up that Mexican Macaroni and Cheese? I've tried it cold and it wasn't too good - but once I heated it up, it became more "cheesy" and tastier to eat.

Hmmmmm mexican macaroni&cheese

with extra tabasco!
Bring it on, housil I know most Germans dont have spicy palates(like Poles as I have recently found out).
I just love Mexican food(been once as well as to restaurants here in London).
Had the MRE version once and liked it big time.
Some of the other Mexican style items are good in MRE's like black bean burrito, Jalapeno cheese and the enchilada isnt bad(although not authentic).
More the better.

Yep. After microwaving, the cheese was "melting" and became a "creamy" sauce. Delicious to Mrs. Housil expactations. She had crackers /w jalapeno cheese spread for dessert.

Eating it cold is okay, but rather clumpy in mind opinion. Better to zap it for a minute and have it warm, better flavour and consistency.

Kamaraden housil.....Guten morgen!
I had those for lunch yesterday @ my school. It was a 2007 MRE menu 8 Beef patty.It was tasty and satisfying....

I left my lunch at my home and thank God I keep a small kit for emergency situations in my truck (MRE's included...lol) The only problem was the tabasco sauce it leaked all over the accesories....
anyway...those mexican mac' n' cheese are tasty!!!!!
Schuss mein freund!
Peace!
