SUPER-QUICK VELVEETA LASAGNA



Super-Quick Velveeta Lasagna image

I got this one from someone (can't remember who), that just verbally told me how to make it. Great for nights when the kids have lots of activities. You can assemble it ahead of time and bake later. Kids love it because of the Velveeta cheese. (Why do they always like that fake, orange "cheese"?)
