You will want to use cheese with a strong flavour, such as an extra sharp cheddar.

It's cheese sauce. Pour it on stuff your kids dont want to eat and hope for the best. Kinda basic, but you can spice it up easily enough if you want.

My husband and myself loved this. Than I made a batch for my parents who loved it as well. Definitely have to have the sharp cheddar cheese!

It was just okay. I didn’t have really sharp cheddar, so it could have been my fault, but I’m curious what other recipes are out there.
