How do you keep Velveeta Shells and Cheese from Hardening??

I will cook the mac and cheese and the by the time my quests arrive and are ready to eat ( like 20 min later) the cheese is all hard and nothing will melt it down again, its like its only good for 20 min then you have to cook another batch. And putting it in the microwave makes it worse!!!

A wee bit of milk over low heat or into micro at low heat. And those quests will think you are the bomb. What kind of a quest are you on? ;)
Reply:Keep them in the microwave
Reply:Add a little milk to the pot and heat until warm, it will break down the cheese and make it gooey again. (Just don't add too much milk, little by little)
Reply:well right before they get there start boil the water when they get there put in the noodles it takes what 10 min for those to cook? I'm sure they can wait 10 min to eat.
Reply:Cook the mac and drain it and toss it with a little olive oil to keep it from sticking together. And, KEEP the hot water in the pot. Don't add the cheese yet. Just before you're ready to serve it, heat the water to boiling again, put in the cooked mac for a minute or two, just long enough to let it get hot. Then drain the mac and add the cheese.
Reply:Just cook it later, how hard is it. Mac and cheese for guests? You need to try something else.
