Rotel Pasta Delight

Instructions:

  1. Cook the Pasta:
    • Boil the penne pasta according to the instructions on the box until al dente.
    • Drain the pasta and set aside.
  2. Season and Brown the Ground Beef:
    • In a large skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef.
    • Season with Slap Ya Mama, garlic powder, onion powder, and a pinch of cayenne pepper to taste.
    • Brown the beef, breaking it into crumbles as it cooks.
    • If there’s excess grease, drain it.
  3. Add Rotel:
    • Stir in the cans of Rotel tomatoes and green chilies to the seasoned ground beef.
    • Allow the mixture to simmer for a few minutes to let the flavors meld.
  4. Incorporate Velveeta:
    • Cube both blocks of Velveeta and add them to the skillet with the meat and Rotel.
    • Stir occasionally until the Velveeta is completely melted and forms a creamy sauce.
  5. Combine with Pasta:
    • Once the cheese is melted, add the cooked and drained penne pasta to the skillet.
    • Gently fold the pasta into the cheesy meat mixture until well coated.
  6. Adjust Consistency (Optional):
    • If the mixture seems too thick, you can add a splash of milk to achieve your desired consistency.
  7. Serve and Enjoy:
