  1. This is not the Cooking Light recipe that I've made in the past. It was made with base of butter and onion then flour added with a little dry mustard in a medium size sauce pan. After it thickens, add low fat or skim milk, sharp cheddar cheese while that is melting rice should be cooking. Add all ingredients together and top with crushed Melba crackers and melted butter/margarine for topping and bake at 350 for 30 minutes.
