Frozen mac n cheese

That stuff is typically heated in a steamer, so in boiling water is probably your best option. Once it’s hot, pull the bag, cut it, and dinner will be served.

 

Should work.

Shouldn't be any different than if you were heating up left overs from the freezer.

I could be wrong but eh, it's mac n cheese. Can't be that complicated.

In the future if you end up with frozen tacos, I'll be glad to give you my address and send you a package containing pictures of me gleefully eating them.

The problem with microwaving a solid 1-2lb chunk of food is a microwave doesn’t evenly heat. It’ll burn in spots and/or melt the bag.

Usually, food like this is cut out of the bag and put into a steamer pan used in a steam table. A steamer evenly thaws and heats the food, without hot spots or burning it. Likewise, leaving it in a bag, dropping it into a pot of water, then, heating it eliminates burning the food. You gotta’ look at this as an institutional-sized serving of food and heat it like they would.

 

I kind of figured it was a given to break it up.

Hell, run it under cold water thaw it out some, toss in a bowl, nuke it how you like it.

Or a chisel.

Or find a way to steam it. But that's boring. I like that the OP is taking a non-traditional approach to this.

If anyone needs a mac n cheese fix, but doesn't have time to fix it, I offer to you...
