Cheesy Mac - Kid Friendly Recipes

Cheesy Mac - Kid Friendly Recipes


It's funny how I try to improvise recipes for what I have in the house. Sometimes they turn out, sometimes they could be a bit better. I made up my own recipe this time based on what I had in the house and the kids loved it. I had to write down the recipe to make sure we don't forget! Then I thought I should share it with you!


3/4 pkg Tinkyada Pasta Joy Brown Rice Pasta - Penne (cooked)
1.5lb ground meat - browned
2 tablespoons dried onion flakes
1 Tablespoon dried basil
1 Tablespoon dried oregano
1 Tablespoon dried minced garlic
1 Tablespoon dried grated garlic
1/2 Tablespoon sage (dried)
3oz cream cheese (diced into smaller pieces)
1lb or (1/2 block) 1/3 less fat Velveeta Processed Cheese


Cook pasta, drain and set aside with olive oil coating the pasta to prevent sticking.

Brown ground meat in a non stick pan(drain if excess fat remains) along with all dry ingredients. Add in cream cheese and Velveeta after meat is browned, let melt. Add in Penne pasta and mix. Serve warm. Simple, fast and YUMMY! :)
