Ingredients
- 4 (2.1 oz) cups microwaveable mac and cheese
- 1/2 seedless cucumber, sliced into 2-inch spears
- 4 Clear Plastic Cups
- 1 Black permanent marker
Instructions
- Use marker to draw a Jack-O-Lantern face on the side of each plastic cup.
- Cook macaroni & cheese cups in microwave according to package instructions.
- Allow mac & cheese to cool for at least 5 minutes before transferring to plastic cups. If you put the hot pasta in the plastic cups when it's too hot, the plastic cup will warp!

Notes
- Scale this recipe to make as many mac and cheese cups as you need. If you're preparing cups for a big party, make a big box of mac and cheese on the stovetop and spoon into serving cups when ready to enjoy.
