Thanks for the reminiscing! <br /><br />I just had annies the other day- I was going to throw tofu in but I kinda just wanted it more plain for whatever reason. I have another box lurking in the cabinets calling out " spruce me up!"Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3987027968898564553.post-49148835645344060492009-06-11T05:23:18.279-07:002009-06-11T05:23:18.279-07:00I like the creative ways you've spiced up Anni...I like the creative ways you've spiced up Annie's. I'm with you on not really liking to eat it just "plain."<br /><br />My mom was a healthnut before I became one, so we rarely had any packaged treats in the house. We did used to get fruit roll-ups, but I can't say I miss those. I do sometimes crave Little Debbie's zebra cakes, though!Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02758932883732204080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3987027968898564553.post-59501719709449638912009-06-10T21:24:20.948-07:002009-06-10T21:24:20.948-07:00Ooooh, your additions to Annie's Mac are gorge...Ooooh, your additions to Annie's Mac are gorgeous!! Thank you so much for the inspiration - I do have a box of Annie's sitting on the shelf, but felt it needed a little help - now I know exactly how to spruce it up! Hooray! I'm so excited! :-)<br /><br />Oh my, my mother used to serve us these huge cinnamon buns for Sunday morning breakfast sometimes, and I confess I still long for them... :-)<br /><br />P.S. Thank you so very much for your lovely comment on my blog! :-)Astra Librishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17875529379234934319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3987027968898564553.post-82812136538498887552009-06-10T16:31:46.147-07:002009-06-10T16:31:46.147-07:00Count Chocula!

My mom would occasionally bring home doughnuts after working the night shift. Those mornings were fabulous.<br /><br />It's funny -- my mom made EVERYTHING from scratch, including bread and tomato soup. I never had boxed mac & cheese until I was in college. I make most things from scratch and it is totally wasted on my family. When I need a super quick meal and use hamburger helper, they rave about dinner and how great it is. I do make it healthier -- ground turkey breast or a mix of that and beans instead of beef, no fake cheese or "sauce" -- I use a bit of real cheese and plain yogurt instead. I also sub ww pasta and brown rice when possible. However, it's still not health food and they LOVE it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3987027968898564553.post-63505212235064314162009-06-10T13:45:23.694-07:002009-06-10T13:45:23.694-07:00I love adding veggies to everything I make-loved y...I love adding veggies to everything I make-loved your fiber-filled mac & cheese :)<br />As a kid I would anything that was sweet-I was crazy about "Poppins"(its a roll pack of hard-boiled rounded sugar candies in different flavours). I could finish the whole pack within minutes(ugh-though I still have a sweet tooth,can't imagine eating Poppins now)!Sweta (My Indian Dietitian)https://www.blogger.com/profile/07317493638998906683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3987027968898564553.post-71523452189427337592009-06-10T08:17:12.685-07:002009-06-10T08:17:12.685-07:00that looks great!

I wasn't really 'allowed' junk food when I was little- my mom would make zuchinni bread for our birthdays and my favorite snack was raw mushrooms and raisins! Though I used to love fluffernutter sandwiches when I got them and don't think I would like them much now!elliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15149712515785227561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3987027968898564553.post-27240530919453502302009-06-10T05:01:43.701-07:002009-06-10T05:01:43.701-07:00Well, you named two of my FAVORITE childhood foods...Well, you named two of my FAVORITE childhood foods: Velveeta Mac and Cheese, and Nutty Bars!! I remember all the other kids loved Kraft mac and Cheese, but I was like, "no way! Nothing beats velveeta!" Of course, that was back when I was naive about what I put in my mouth (sometimes I miss those days!) I also loved the zeebra cakes from Little Debbie, oh man, I want one right now! Great moderation to Annie's Mac and Cheese, looks delicious.Gina; The Candid RDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13034788087113648183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3987027968898564553.post-61754764413991366402009-06-10T04:21:00.069-07:002009-06-10T04:21:00.069-07:00I love all your spruced up goodies!

It was really delicious.<br />I did a post on my childhood food a while back and Kraft mac and cheese was on there!
