With summertime here I don’t want to be slaving over a hot stove for too long since it’s getting hotter and hotter here. I am all about the quick lunches and easy dinners that make life easy, but are still delicious. That’s where Velveeta Shells and Cheese comes in. Whether you’re eating it plain or dressing it up a little it’s a quick and delicious meal for the family. I’ve been a shells and cheese fan for years. I love that you don’t have to add the extra ingredients, just cook the pasta and add the cheese, but I also love that it’s so easy to “dress up”. There are so many ways to prepare shells and cheese that are budget friendly and easy!
Some of my favorite ways to eat Velveeta Shells & Cheese are by adding:
- Hotdogs.
- Cooked chicken and mixed veggies.
- Cooked ground beef and a can of drained ro’tel.
- Bacon and Peas.
- adding it as a side dish to meatloaf, BBQ, and chicken dinners.
- and of course Plain is always a favorite too!
I grew up eating Shells & Cheese with hotdogs and it’s something I make for my kids now. It’s the perfect summertime lunch, easy, and so delicious. Plus, you never hear the kids complain about eating it!!
Ingredients:
1 Box Velveeta Shells & Cheese
2 Cooked Hotdogs
Directions:
Cook shells & cheese according to box.
Cook hotdogs – I boil mine in water for 5 minutes.
Dice up cooked hotdogs and add to prepared shells & cheese.
Mix up and enjoy!

I love eating Velveeta Shells and cheese and so does my son. I would consider adding a hot dog that is a chicken sausage. I really like this recipe and want to make it soon. Thanks for sharing!
