Best Marijuana Recipe: Mac`n Cheese

Some say mac and cheese is the ultimate comfort food.To make this one-of-a-kind edible, simply add your own Cannabis-infused butter to any homemade macaroni and cheese recipe or even a boxed macaroni and cheese container. So medicating your mac and cheese is definitely a worthwhile venture. Not only that but this recipe is homemade so it’s much healthier than the stuff from the store!

Ingredients:
½ cup of unsalted butter
½ cup of cannabis butter
2 teaspoons of salt
1 teaspoon of black pepper
½ a teaspoon of cayenne pepper
1 cup of grated cheddar cheese
1 cup of grated Mozzarella cheese
1 cup of grated Swiss cheese
3/4th cup of grated Parmesan cheese
1 cup of flour 3/4th cup of bread crumbs
4 cups of milk 1 pound of cooked macaroni pasta

Directions:

Heat the unsalted regular butter and the cannabis butter in a deep pan and let them melt well for 3 to 5 minutes. Once they have melted, add the flour in little by little, whisking it in with the butter properly.

Next, add the milk in small batches just like the flour and whisk it in as well to form a smooth mixture. If you add the milk all together at once the mixture will become lumpy. Once you are done mixing in the milk, add the different seasonings namely, salt, black pepper and cayenne pepper.

After seasoning take the pan off the heat to add the various cheeses namely, cheddar cheese, Swiss cheese, Mozzarella cheese and Parmesan. Start by adding the cheddar a little bit at a time and mix it in nicely. Continue the same process with the other three cheeses in the order of Swiss, Mozzarella and Parmesan. Don’t add all of the Parmesan, leave some aside.

Now that you’ve got your cheese sauce to the right creamy consistency, you can add the cooked pasta to the sauce and mix it in well with a spatula. Shift this mac and cheese mixture into a greased oven baking dish. Mix the Parmesan cheese that you left aside with some cannabis butter and bread crumbs and sprinkle it on top of the mac and cheese mixture.

Next, put the baking dish in the oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 30 to 40 minutes to cook. Once the crust of the mac and cheese has turned golden brown you can take it out of the oven and voila! Your yummy and creamy marijuana mac and cheese is ready for you to dig into.

Marijuana: The Healing Herb

Cannabis has been "used since antiquity for both herbal medication and intoxication," according to a 1999 study commissioned by the Institute of Medicine (IOM), a Washington, D.C.-based component of the National Academy of Sciences.

There is scientific evidence that [marijuana] helps with pain relief and nausea and vomiting from chemotherapy, for example, in terminal cancer patients. In addition, some HIV/AIDS patients suffering from decreased appetites use marijuana to "get the munchies," another oft-noted effect of the drug. Medical Cannabis is also used to treat spasticity, painful neurogenic conditions, movement disorders, asthma, and glaucoma. As with any drug, the individual is left with what works best for him or her. A doctor should always be consulted in these matters. It is absolutely advised not to go out and purchase illegal or street marijuana because there is no way of verifying the quality of product or the purity of the product one is receiving.

Although the main kick to marijuana is a chemical known as THC, and THC is found both in marinol and cesamet, it is important to note that marijuana is a plant, an herb made of a huge number and combination of active ingredients and chemicals including cannabinoid substances.

Top 3 Reason To Legalize Marijuana

Marijuana, a.k.a cannabis, pot, weed, hemp, or reefer, has been a topic of heated debates for many years, but now, it is in the spotlight more than ever. The issue about the use of this drug is becoming more and more topical because people are debating whether or not to legalize it. Marijuana, as well all know, is the most commonly used drug in the world. It is said that this drug can help cure diseases, including cancer, glaucoma, and AIDS. Other people claim that it is a great stress reliever and a useful medicine for pain. Even doctors prescribed this drug to people who have problems in sleeping and eating.  As what Major Neil Franklin (Ret.), a former police officer and current head of Law Enforcement Against Prohibition (LEAP), said, “The legalization of marijuana is good for law enforcement, good for families, and good for our communities.” And here are more other reasons why marijuana should be legalized worldwide.  Below are the top three reasons to legalize marijuana.

1.Marijuana Is Not A Harmful Drug; In Fact, It Is Much Safer Than Alcohol And Tobacco.  Legal drugs and Alcohol are much, much worse than Marijuana.  Many of us believe that marijuana is a dangerous drug – once you take it, your life is gone. Well, that’s not surprising at all. People believe that cannabis has destroyed the lives of millions of people worldwide – the very reason why people discourage the use of it. But the problem is that people hardly know about marijuana. The funny thing is they have never even tried it and assume the worst. The truth is marijuana is not a harmful drug. Although the use of it can have negative effects on physical and mental health, if used well, it benefits the user. And when it comes to relative risks and harm, marijuana is less addictive than tobacco or alcohol, and compares favorably to those drugs on nearly every health metric.

2.It Has Medical Value - the narrative of cannabis as a harmful drug has been dominant for so long, that many people had trouble accepting the plant’s demonstrated medicinal effects. Marijuana is a miracle drug that is natural with few side effects. With the recent legalization of medical marijuana in 23 U.S. states, more and more people are starting to turn to marijuana as a treatment option for various ailments. Well, the use of marijuana for medical purposes is no longer new. As early as 2700 B.C., ancient doctors used cannabis as a treatment for gout, digestive disorders, rheumatism, insomnia, and even poor memory. And in recent years, tons of researches have been conducted showing that marijuana is a miracle drug with the ability to cure serious ailments, including cancer, AIDS, and neuropathic pain.

3. Money matters, as usual. - Legalizing marijuana can make sense from a fiscal standpoint, too. Colorado was the first state to legalize and regulate recreational use of marijuana, and decriminalization has been a success for the state’s tax base. Colorado collected more than $6 million in tax revenue in the first two months of 2014, and state legislators expect the value to multiply substantially by the middle of 2015. This projection has led to a planned marijuana money earmark of $40 million for the state's public schools. Legalizing Marijuana will be a tax revenue windfall for local and federal government. Marijuana doesn’t only benefit the body, but the economy as well.
