No way in hell. I like the cheese bubbly and just starting to turn golden brown.
Anyway... these aren't fancy cheese recipes, but they are cheesy goodness IMHO nonetheless.
Loaded Baked Potato Soup
9-12 baking potatoes
2/3 cup butter (not margarine)
2/3 cup all-purpose flour
6 cups whole milk (more potatoes needs more milk)
1/2 tablespoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 cup real bacon bits (note REAL bacon bits)
6 green onions, chopped
16 ounces shredded Cheddar cheese
1 (8 ounce) container sour cream
Prick potatoes with fork and cook in the microwave and cut into thick slices. In a large pot over medium heat, melt butter. Stir in flour and cook about a minute. Whisk in milk, a little at a time, stirring constantly until thickened. Stir in potatoes, salt, pepper, bacon bits and green onions. Cook until thoroughly heated. Stir in sour cream, cheese and heat through.
Cheesy Hashbrown Bake
2lbs frozen hash browns
6-8 oz. frozen chopped onions
2 cups milk
4 Tbsp butter
