    I would love this Jill! Everytime we use to make chili, I would lay the tamales in the bottom of the bowl, top with homemade chile, cheese and sour cream. I know I would like this. Thanks for sharing!

    Yummy yummy I would love this. I remember seeing the canned Tamales before but I don’t remember if I’ve tried them or not. It might just be Time! Love quick skillet meals where you stretch your ingredients and make something unique out of a few convenient items! I can see why yo7 locked onto this recipe when you were looking through your book Jill !! Sweet corn and tamales in sauce with spices 😋. And of course there’s velveeta! Who doesn’t love Velveeta? One of the tastiest cheeses and definitely the best melting cheese ever lol. Like 66 my friend 🤗🙂🍸🧡

    I used to have a Better Homes & Gardens Meals in Minutes Cookbooks in the '70s and I used to buy those canned tamales but somehow missed making this recipe. Velveeta was a staple in our house as well as my grandparent's when I was growing up. My grandmother bought a block of it every Saturday afternoon for as far back as I can remember. Shredded Velveeta is new to me and I can see that it's every bit of difficult to work with as I imagined it would be. All of the ingredients came together beautifully though. It looks delicious and I was super happy to see all of you this time since the last three videos I watched were just your hands. I need to get some Velveeta and Hormel tamales so I can try this.

    • @yesterkitchen
      @yesterkitchen  Před rokem

      Hi Linda! I love that you had and used this fabulous book! It just makes me smile that your grandmother bought a block of Velveeta every Saturday! It was such a popular ingredient back then. Thank you for your kind words! I'm in many of my videos, especially the older ones. A few years ago I started mixing it up with hands only. I hope you try this dish and if you do, please let me know what you think!

    Hello Jill! I just came from the grocery store and bought locally made pork tamales with sauce included (in a separate pouch inside so you can steam the tamale first while heating up the sauce. I was so excited! I also picked up small box of Velveeta as making Mac and cheese this weekend. You are wonderful to watch. My brain must have channeled your upload. LOL. ❣️ Much success with your cookbook!

It would probably taste good with corn chips. 🤤. It’s been a while for me since I’ve used Velveeta but I do like it.

    I have a can of tamales in my pantry! I haven't bought Velveeta in years, but recently started buying their cheese sauce packets for a quick broccoli cheese rice, so good. Wal-Mart in the Atlanta area sells Velveeta shreds, so you may be able to get it delivered from their site, not sure. I love your recipe, it's so fun and looks delicious.

      Hi Kathleen! Oooh... Velveeta cheese sauce! Just give me a spoon, lol!
      If you have a can of tamales in your pantry, it is well worth it to grab the shreds and give this a try. It is absolutely wonderful! And thank you so much! I'm pretty old school and happy to shred a brick of velveeta. I think next time I'm going to take someone's advice and put it in the freezer for a little bit first. If you try it, please let me know!

    I love Velveeta, I use it around the holidays in mac-n-cheese and Ro*Tel nacho dip. It's too salty for me to use regularly, so it's a welcome annual treat. I've never had Hormel tamales, but I've seen them in grocery stores for as far back as I can remember. I might pick some up this weekend to check them out.

    • @yesterkitchen
      @yesterkitchen  Před rokem

      Hi Leguminator! I get it! Velveeta is not an everyday ingredient. I love that rotel dip! And you must try the tamales. They are commercial but have that special magic to them. Let me now when you do!

  • @revsharkie
    @revsharkie Před rokem

    Nice!
    Word to the wise: a really soft cheese like Velveeta might be easier to grate if you freeze it.
    Try making your mac & cheese with that Old English cheese that comes in the glass jars some time. It melts like Velveeta but is sharp cheddar flavor! It's what I use in my aunt Edna's escalloped asparagus, without which Thanksgiving wouldn't be Thanksgiving.

    • @yesterkitchen
      @yesterkitchen  Před rokem

      I know Old english! Thank you, I will totally try it next time. And thank you again, Velveeta cheese in the freezer next time!

    Hi Jill, when I was a child (back in the '50's) I LOOOOVED Velveeta but when I joyfully tried it again a few years ago I discovered that somewhere along the line somehow the recipe seems to have changed from how I remember it tasting. So disappointing ☹
