My review
Not'yo Ordinary Nacho Cheese Sauce
Dana H.
"Not happy with any at-home recipes for nacho sauce, I made up my own! A thick, creamy nacho cheese sauce that you will swear came out of a jar. Cheesy, subtly spicy, and bursting with nacho flavor--it rivals any store-bought nacho cheese sauce. Just be sure to save some aside for yourself! Serve warm immediately over or with tortilla chips, on tacos or burritos, or as any other dip."

We LOVED this dip! I do not keep Rotel(R) on hand, as we really don't care that much for it, so I used salsa instead, which worked perfectly. This is a definite keeper~YUM! Thanks for sharing. ...

It was ok, but there is just no replacing that fake cheese we all love.

Just made this tonight to go with our burgers and it was excellent! Made a couple revisions to the ingredients to suit what I had on-hand but still fantastic!

I made half the amount and didn’t have chili powder, but added in some cayenne instead. Next time, I might use less cheddar and see if that makes it a little hotter.
