Velveta--What's Your Fav. Recipe?

[flemings99]

Bought a brick of velveta a while back--sure I had a recipe in mind to try and have never done it. Almost out of date & no idea what the recipe was or where it would be. Ideas on what to make?

Love this one. Everyone always asks for it. In fact, I have to make it for a July 4th get-together.

Sausage Con Queso Dip

1 lb. Bob Evans Zesty Hot Sausage Roll
1 pkg. (16 oz.) pasteurized processed cheese (Velveeta)
1 can (10 oz.) diced tomatoes & green chiles (undrained), or one jar (16 ounces) salsa
Tortilla chips

Crumble and cook sausage in large saucepan over medium heat until browned. Drain. Cut cheese into cubes and add to sausage. Cook, stirring frequently, until cheese is melted. Stir in tomatoes/chiles. Serve warm with tortilla chips.

Makes 16 servings

I have always made it with the tomatoes/chiles. Never tried it with the salsa. I follow the directions then throw it in a crock pot.

As a dip, rotel & veleeta is great.

I always steam broccoli, carrots & cauliflower then make a velveeta cheese sauce. Put the cheese over the steamed veggies...

Hi there! I'm sorry to hear that you have a brick of Velveeta that is almost out of date and you can't remember the recipe you had in mind. Luckily, Velveeta is such a versatile ingredient and there are so many delicious recipes you can make with it. Have you considered making a classic mac and cheese or a creamy broccoli cheese soup? You could also try making a cheesy queso dip for game day or a cheesy chicken and rice casserole. Don't be afraid to get creative and experiment with different flavors and ingredients. I'm sure whatever you end up making will be delicious. Let me know how it turns out!
