Meal: "deluxe" Mac & cheese with SPAM & onions

Here's one of my favorite SPAM-centric comfort dishes.
It's a "two fer" because it also satisfies my mac & cheese cravings. :)

Ingredients:

one box of mac & cheese "deluxe" (or "shells" & cheese deluxe)
(i.e. the kind that comes with the squeeze pouch of liquid Velveeta/equivalent)
(DollarTree & Aldi both carry a generic type that tastes the same as the expensive name brands)
a SPAM Single (or just part of any can of "luncheon meat")
onion (just part of one - dehydrated also works ok)

Instructions:
Fry the SPAM and onions to your desired states:

Prepare the "deluxe" mac/shells & cheese as per package directions:

Combine and ... Bon appetit:

This makes enough for one to three people (depending on their hunger levels and the amounts of SPAM & onions).

Pro tips (all learned from much practice/mistakes):

It's best not to salt the water for the pasta (there's more than enough salt in the SPAM & liquid-cheese).
If you have one, thermos cook the pasta but do not add the cheese in the thermos (it's hard to clean).
If you do this, you can start the pasta, then prepare the SPAM & onions while it cooks, so everything is ready at the same time even with just a single burner stove. :)
Instead of boxed "deluxe mac & cheese", I've successfully used wholewheat pasta with a Dollar Tree liquid-Velveeta pouch. :)
