One of my most favorite foods in the whole world is cheese! Growing up, my mom always knew I was actually sick when I refused to eat cheese. I’m pretty sure I’m not alone here. In my unhealthier days, I loved to eat nachos with the store-bought cheese sauce. Now that I’m a THMer, I love to find healthy versions of my favorite junk foods. This cheese sauce definitely does the trick. It’s quick & easy & sure to be a crowd-pleaser, whether you’re hosting a super bowl party or if you’re just in the mood for nachos. My favorite way to eat it is with mini bell peppers, but you can also use pork rinds and keep it an S or baked Tostitos & enjoy a XO.
