Challenge - Nacho Cheese Sauce
« on: June 23, 2011, 02:18:49 am »
Hi everyone,

As you may know, our school has just won 2 Thermomixes (yeah!!!) and it is our bi-annual school festival this year in October. One of the food options we want to serve are vegetarian nachos but we don't have the facilities to grill/bake them in the quantities we will need. I have suggested that we make a cheese sauce to pour onto the corn chips instead, and of course said with all the confidence in the world that we could *easily* make the cheese sauce in the Thermomix. Now I have to come up with the goods though and provide a recipe for the cheese sauce.

I remember as a kid we used to use an Old El Paso cheese sauce powder to make up a sauce and it was delicious. But I can't find them anymore to play with the flavours. I do remember though that it wasn't anything like a bechamel based cheese sauce.

I don't have a prize to offer, other than infinite love and gratitude, to the person(s) who can provide a recipe but I know there are lots of people on the forum who just love a challenge...

In hopeful anticipation,
Kerryn

Is this the type of thing you mean Kerryn - it would be easily converted in the TMX

JD first to answer a plea for help again!  It looks like a really good and easy recipe.

Kerryn there is a delicious cheese sauce in the Lunchbox booklet (I'm sure someone can correct me on the name) which I always use for nachos.

Aaaahhhh. I *knew* I had seen one somewhere. Now I will need to try both of these out... was just about to write shopping list to get the ingredients to make the one JD found for dinner.

We made this tonight (it is called Melted Cheese Dip in that booklet) and it was very yummy. Certainly is on the list for the the festival. Will try the one JD suggested next.

It sure is a wonderful forum.  :P :P :P
