Velveeta Cheese Burger Mac and Cheese is an easy dinner to prepare for a busy mom like you. Made only in 6 ingredients, this is a cheap way to serve a quick dinner.
THE BEST AND CREAMIEST STOVETOP MAC AND CHEESE EVER!!! This Mac and Cheese are seriously the best. It is cooked stovetop, it is seriously so easy to cook and you can make this within 30 minutes plus the taste and the creaminess, are out of this world that your family will certainly love it. I have made this a dozen times, and it always amazes the kids. I also bring it to work for lunch.
Before I came here to the US, I had no idea what Macaroni and Cheese were until I tried one in our hospital’s cafeteria. How I wish that I can say that I love it, but I wouldn’t say I liked it. It was just salty and I thought it smelled weird.
Thirteen years later, I am now a Mac and Cheese fan because I found this recipe. I got it from a Kraft magazine and since then, every time the family craves Mac and Cheese, this is a no-fail way to go. So creamy, so cheesy, and freaking delicious! what I love more about this recipe is that, the taste gets better the next day and when heated up; so I always make a big batch that can last a week of work lunches and dinners. Try this, and you will surely love it…

What could I use as a substitute for velvetta?
Shobelyn Dayrit says
Hi, shannon. Where is the cover page? It’s 1/2 lb equal to 8 oz.
Shobelyn Dayrit says
It’s 8 oz.
Shannon Dunlap says
The cover page days 1 pound Velveeta but the recipe inside says 8 ounces. Which is it?
Shobelyn Dayrit says
I have not tried it, but I don’t recommend subbing the ketchup, as it will change the consistency and taste.
Ramorgan says
I haven’t tried this recipe yet, but can I use canned dived tomatoes instead of ketchup?
