The Perfect Family Dinner Recipe

This recipe serves 8-10 people, so you will probably have leftovers for lunch the next day if you make it for a weeknight dinner. Or, this would would be a great recipe for a crowd. Bring it for a pitch-in or a potluck!

While I do love how easy this recipe is. I do want to note that it is not a “quick” recipe. The prep moves pretty quickly, but you will need to budget in an hour of total cooking time. This shouldn’t be a problem, just make sure you know when to start dinner when having this at home!

I know that some people have a problem with processed (Velveeta) cheese. Velveeta is often used to make Macaroni and Cheese dishes because it melts pretty consistently and easily. So, can you substitute Velveeta for a different cheese? Sure, I’d recommend using a sharp cheddar. Just the cheap blocks of it that you can buy at the store. It should still melt pretty easily but have a bit more of an edge to the flavor. Or, you can try mixing some of your cheese as well. Just keep experimenting!

I hope you enjoy this recipe! Let me know what you think of it in the comments. Enjoy!
