Just Another Pantry Meal ..

So I'm not sure what is considered a "budget meal" or even "pantry meal" with everything going on.
I have no idea what anyone has access to, but this is what I had access to.

I found this awesome box of pasta at the Dollar Tree. It's a pound and a half of pasta! For $1! Is that a deal or what? I think Aldi had a 2 lb box of spaghetti for around $2 if I remember correctly.

I had some broccoli in the fridge that needed to be used up.
I had a little bit of this mac n cheese powder mix that is from ItDoesn'tTasteLikeChicken.
I cooked up some pasta, added vegan butter to the pasta and the rest of the mac n cheese powder. I used some water and broth bouillon to finish up the sauce.

I air fried the broccoli. It was amazing.
I cut it up and tossed it in some oil with garlic salt and black pepper to taste.

I air fried it at 380°F for about 12 minutes and got CRISPY.
I'd probably go for about 10 minutes next time, but it was still really good.
