Description

Hot medium white sauce is stirred with chopped or grated American cheese over low heat until the cheese melts into a smooth, comforting sauce. A simple staple for macaroni, potatoes, and steamed vegetables.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Stir 1/2 cup chopped or grated American cheese into 1 cup hot medium white sauce over low heat until melted and smooth.

Note

Serve over macaroni, rice, or steamed vegetables. When melting cheese into sauce, keep the heat low or remove the pan from direct heat to prevent the sauce from becoming grainy or oily.
