Notes

We have a large family so I don't know how much you would use for a single person or a couple of people. We always have left overs on this as it will make a large tupperware bowl full, although it never goes to waste!  Enjoy and let me know what you think!

I used a pound of shredded Cheddar instead of velveeta and it was great. I also cut recipe in half.
