If you have a hankering for good ol' fashioned Velveeta macaroni and cheese but have ditched the recipe because of the cost of a block of Velveeta, well here's a great solution. With all the latest discount stores popping up like Aldi, Save a Lot, and Bravo, you can get a good processed cheese counterpart. I recently picked up a block of such cheese at Aldi. It was a 32 ounce block for only $3.99. With it I squeezed out two meals which makes this a candidate for meals under $5.
Give it a try, you won't be disappointed.
1 8 oz. box of elbow pasta
1 stick of butter, not margarine for this one
1 can 14 oz. evaporated milk
1 pd. of Velveeta, or substitute, cut into cubes
Boil pasta as directed on package. Drain water, but keep about 1/4 cup in bottom of pot. Keep pasta in drainer. To the water add one stick of butter, milk, cheese. Stir until blended. Add noodles and let sit. The longer it sits, the thicker it gets. Serve immediately.
