Creamy Bacon Vegetable Pasta Skillet recipe

I added 5 oz. cubed Velveeta to make it cheesier. If using carrots, add them with the pasta so they cook through.

The recipe is good overall but could use some doctoring due to its blandness. Additional bacon or other meat, parmesan, or cream cheese would help this dish.

This recipe was pretty good, but only if you have company coming because it's not good the second time around. We love leftover and this recipe is not so good the next day! Thanks!
