- 3 cups Broccoli florets
- 16 ounces Velveeta cheese, cubed
- 1 cup Milk
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper

Instructions
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the macaroni pasta and cook according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Meanwhile, steam the broccoli florets for 4-5 minutes until they are tender yet still bright green. Set aside.
In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the Velveeta cheese cubes and milk, stirring continuously until the cheese is completely melted and you have a smooth, creamy sauce.
Season the cheese sauce with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Stir well to combine.
Add the cooked chicken and steamed broccoli to the cheese sauce. Stir gently to coat the chicken and broccoli in the sauce.
Fold in the cooked macaroni pasta, ensuring everything is well coated in the cheesy sauce.
