Agree upgrading the cheese and baking would enhance the mac and cheese. My goal was to find a tasty recipe that uses Velveeta and doesn't require baking (no oven).
I noticed when I was making the dish in my multi pot that it was difficult to control the boiling pot of noodles to drain. The colander was flopping around in the sink. And it was too small for a batch of noodles. Amazon has a collapsing colander that fits perfectly in my sink. It doesn't touch bottom, so the noodles aren't sitting in sink water. And there are no holes in the sides to overflow where it sticks up out of the sink. And it has plenty of capacity for a pound box of pasta. And it folds flat for storage.
