Super Slow Velveeta Mac & Cheese

I know around nutrient snobs volition plow their olfactory organ upward at a recipe using Velveeta cheese as well as that's OK, I don't piece of occupation it rattling oftentimes either. However, Velveeta DOES brand the creamiest macaroni as well as cheese, you lot accept to acknowledge it!!

A few days ago, Julie, over at Better than Burgers, posted a recipe she called KFC Mock Mac as well as Cheese. While I've never tried KFC mac as well as cheese, the recipe looked great. I made a brace of rattling kid changes to her recipe as well as renamed it. 

We loved it (and it couldn't live on quicker or easier!!)

 

My recipe "tweaks" are inwards BLUE

Boil ii cups of elbow macaroni for virtually 7-10 minutes (see note)
6 ounces of Velveeta cheese (see note)
1 loving cup shredded cheddar (I used sharp)
1/2 loving cup milk (I used 3/4 loving cup milk)
1/2 teaspoon salt  (I left this out because Velveeta is salty)

Julie's recipe called for making the sauce inwards a pan, but I did it this way:

When the macaroni is almost done, set the Velveeta (cubed)+ the shredded cheddar + the milk inwards a microwave condom bowl. Microwave it on high for 1 minute, take away as well as stir.  Microwave it for 1 to a greater extent than infinitesimal as well as stir till smooth.

All microwaves are different, as well as hence sentry yours for the concluding thirty seconds equally to non over laid the cheese. The sauce volition live on rattling smooth.

Drain the cooked macaroni as well as stir into the sauce...that's all in that place is to it!! If you lot similar "Velveeta Shells as well as Cheese" out of the box (the 1 amongst the foil pouch of cheese sauce) you lot volition dear this recipe.

NOTE: This recipe calls for six ounces of Velveeta cheese, fortunately, the Velveeta foil wrapper is marked inwards 1 ounce sections, as well as hence that makes it easy.

NOTE: Most elbow macaroni is boiled for virtually 7-8 minutes, but when I brand macaroni as well as cheese, I similar to boil the noodles an extra infinitesimal or so. It's simply a personal preference.
