HUNGRY GIRL LOW FAT CHEESE SAUCE



Hungry Girl Low Fat Cheese Sauce image

A recipe for cheese sauce featured in a nacho swapper recipe on the Hungry Girl newsletter. One serving for a plate of nachos. I've made this a few times now and I'm very pleased with it. I've made it with 75% reduced fat sharp cheddar and jalapeno bits for a spicy nacho. I had a hard time measuring the ounces, I've ended up winging it and using about equal parts of all ingredients to make large batches.

Steps:

  • Melt all three cheeses in a saucepan with the soymilk; stir to combine.
