After looking for a cheese sauce and coming up short, I created this fantastic recipe that the whole family LOVED! You can use any kind of cheese you like, but I prefer an old/sharp cheddar. The cayenne pepper only adds flavour, not heat, so if you want it hot you'll have to increase it. Ingredients:
3/4 cup milk |
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour |
1 1/2 tablespoons garlic butter |
2 tablespoons light cream cheese |
1 cup grated cheddar cheese |
1/4-1/2 teaspoon dried cayenne pepper |
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice |
salt and pepper |
Directions:
1. Combine milk, flour and dried cayenne pepper in a medium saucepan.
2. Add butter and cream cheese and melt over medium-high heat.
3. Add lemon juice and cheddar cheese.
4. Melt cheese and stir constantly over medium heat until mixture thickens slightly.
5. Reduce heat to minimum or remove from burner and continue to stir until slightly cooled.
6. Serve warm over lightly cooked broccoli, cauliflower or your favourite vegetables!
