The result is sensational! Thick and extra-cheesy – perfect for convincing any veggie hater to eat their greens or, for those who don’t really need an extra push, a special, occasional treat. The recipe is adapted from the cheddar cheese sauce I made to swirl into my Cheesy Taco Soup, except it has just a tad more shredded cheddar to really pump up the flavor. Continue whisking over medium-low heat until the sauce thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 5 minutes more if using unsalted butter or 10 minutes if using salted butter (or longer if you have a gas stove). Slowly start drizzling warm milk into the flour mixture, whisking constantly. Slowly pour in milk, whisking constantly until smooth and fully combined with the butter and flour mixture. In addition to vegetables it’s also great to stir into pasta and rice, or even pour directly over crunchy tortilla chips for a little homemade nacho action. Add butter and flour to a medium pot over medium heat. This cheddar cheese sauce takes just 5 minutes to make and will liven up everything from steamed broccoli and cauliflower, to hot baked potatoes. That said, even I - a die-hard veggie lover - can appreciate a little jazzing up of my favorite side dish every now and again with a warm, decadent Easy Cheddar Cheese Sauce drizzled on top, muwahaha! To the sauce, we add a whole pound of cheddar. If I never see a bag of frozen succotash again, it’ll be too soon. Thanks to butter, flour, and milk the sauce is like velvet and super creamy. ![]() Well besides, say it with me, bell peppers and cooked carrots. My parents were lucky in that my brothers and I didn’t need too much convincing to eat our vegetables when we were growing up.
