Easy Cheesy Pasta Pot

Submitted by GaylaV

"I couldn't think of anything I wanted on a cold winter day. I was all by myself so this comfort food was made for only 1 person. Feel free to pick the frozen veggies that you like. I like crunch so added some French's Fried Onions. It definately hit the spot (a very generous serving). I think I will try an expanded version for the family soon."

I made this for my dinner tonight because I know my kids do not like peas & carrots mixed in with their food. Well imagine my surprise when all three "fan" kids came in a scooped themselves a bowl of it leaving me with just a couple of tablespoons. Looks like this is a keeper.
