This was great! My kids wanted me to make more immediately. I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out great, not too runny. I know there are several cheese powders available, I used cheddar cheese powder available at our local bulk food store. -
Maybe it was my cheese powder; maybe it was me, but this just didn't thicken up even to the 'blue box' stage. I wound up having to put a slice of regular cheese in to thicken it somewhat so it wasn't soup. We still had to eat it in bowls. I was excited because I was looking for something new to do with my cheese powder. It did have a fairly nice flavor, but then again, cheese and pasta just can't help it. Thanks for the recipe, but this won't be added to my arsenal. Sorry.

With 5 kids and a hungry husband to feed, I'm always looking for good, budget friendly meals. We generally eat meals that use little meat (I try to use 1 lb or less per dinner, and none the rest of day), so that means lots of casseroles and meats with gravy.
I enjoy baking, so bread recipes and desserts tend to get saved more frequently than others. I'm especially partial to chocolate and lemon (although not together).
