Velveeta Cheesy Chicken Skillet

What's not to love about mac n cheese, yummy vegetables, and chicken all mixed up? I chose this recipe because it used Velveeta Shells & Cheese which is my favorite boxed dinner EVER. It was very good and we will be making it again. Next time, I may steam the veggies a bit before adding them though because I prefer them a bit more tender than they turned out.
