I made cheese sauce earlier this week so the boys could have steamy nachos like in the Steamy Nachos song (Jerry was a racecar driver by Primus).

It turned out quite well, and it's easy to make. Essentially a roux with a bunch of grated cheese mixed in. Here's the recipe

We use cheese sauce to cover veggies!

I was thinking this with the sauce itself, once recipe called for putting a bunch of vegetables in the sauce. Or I could make the vegan version I found which seems to be slow cooked vegetables mashed up. Maybe I can treat it like the savoury version of a smoothie for them.

We just use it as camouflage over the top.

Nice. What brand of chips do you use?

[โ€“] tombruzzo@aussie.zone 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I use the fancy Mission chips. They're thicker and can take things like dip better

Have a look at queso recipes if you want inspo to tweak it a bit.
