Introduction

Who doesn't like cheese on everything? This one gives it a little kick. This recipe is one of my go-to's when I'm looking to sauce a dish up. From vegetables, meats, or just as a dip. I've also been known to just eat it straight. It's that good. Who doesn't like cheese on everything? This one gives it a little kick.
