The Incredibles – Mac and Cheese, Mashed Potatoes, Steak, Meatloaf

Quick links: Mac and Cheese | Mashed PotatoesSteak | Meatloaf | Verdict

 

The Incredibles might be the most fun Pixar movie ever made. It’s always a joy watching it. I want to go save the world right after too. There wasn’t too much food, except for the family’s leftover night. I just wonder how much food they make on a regular night because it seemed like almost a full meatloaf, big bowl of mashed potatoes and steak. A full steak. I’ll give Mrs. Incredible the benefit of the doubt. Maybe they had guests that canceled last minute or something.

I have never made mac and cheese that wasn’t from a blue box. It was a little trickier than boiling noodles and adding a packet of fake cheese and milk.  But it turned out great.

Dash Steak

Mr. Incredible break’s Dash’s plate when cutting the steak. On a side note, did they name Dash, Dashiell knowing that he would be fast and they could use Dash as a nickname? Did he show some signs as an infant? Or was it just some crazy coincidence.

 I just seasoned the steak with salt and pepper and cooked it in a cast iron skillet. Make sure the steak is room temperature before cooking. Here’s a great video that shows you how to make a great pan-cooked steak by Gordon Ramsay.

Will it Give you Superpowers?

Very classic American food right here. It was all really good. The meatloaf was probably some of the best I’ve ever had and the steak was the best since Goucho Goofy.
