Servings: 1

 

Ingredients:

3/4 cup breadcrumbs

3 egg whites

Dash of hot sauce

1 batch carrot macaroni and cheese *

Salt and pepper

Equipment:

baking paper

oven

baking sheet

bowl

whisk

Cooking instruction summary:

When macaroni and cheese is cool enough to handle, shape into 12 balls (size of a large egg) and place in an airtight container. If you need to stack them on top of each other, place parchment paper in between. Place in the fridge and let refrigerate overnight. This helps the macaroni and cheese to thicken up and stay together during baking. You could probably get away with 2-3 hours in the fridge, but overnight is ideal.When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Place a baking sheet into the oven while it is preheating.Place the breadcrumbs in a shallow bowl. Whisk together the egg whites, salt, pepper, and hot sauce in another bowl. Dip each mac and cheese ball into the egg whites and then roll in the breadcrumbs.Pull the baking sheet out of the oven and spray with cooking spray. Place the mac and cheese balls in a single layer and bake for 20 minutes, flipping halfway through.

Food Joke

A man walks into a restaurant with an ostrich behind him, and as he sits, the waitress comes over and asks for their order. The man says,"I'll have a hamburger, fries and a coke," and turns to the ostrich. "What's yours?" "I'll have the same," says the ostrich. A short time later the waitress returns with the order. "That will be $6.40 please," and the man reaches into his pocket and pulls out exact change for payment. The next day, the man and the ostrich come again and the man says, "I'll have a hamburger, fries and a coke," and the ostrich says, "I'll have the same." Once again the man reaches into his pocket and pays with exact change. This becomes a routine until late one evening, the two enter again. "The usual?" asks the waitress. "No, this is Friday night, so I will have a steak, baked potato and salad," says the man. "Same for me," says the ostrich. A short time later the waitress comes with the order and says, "That will be $12.62." Once again the man pulls exact change out of his pocket and places it on the table. The waitress can't hold back her curiosity any longer. "Excuse me, sir. How do you manage to always come up with the exact change out of your pocket every time?" "Well," says the man, "several years ago I was cleaning the attic and I found an old lamp. When I rubbed it a Genie appeared and offered me two wishes. My first wish was that if I ever had to pay for anything, just put my hand in my pocket, and the right amount of money would always be there." "That's brilliant!" says the waitress. "Most people would wish for a million dollars or something, but you'll always be as rich as you want for as long as you live!" "That's right! Whether it's a gallon of milk or a Rolls Royce, the exact money is always there," says the man. The waitress asks, "One other thing, sir, what's with the ostrich?" The man replies, "My second wish was for a chick with long legs.
