      Thank you so much Sue L., for a super easy sauce. I'm not supposed to eat dairy due to IBS, and though I was tempted b/c I have the "Real McCoys" in our fridge, I passed up the real milk and cheese, and subbed Soysations brand shredded Cheddar, Jack, and Mozzarella blend, Silk unsweetened soy milk, and margarine. I cut the recipe down also, since it was just me eating this, but I have to say I'm impressed by the results - thick, creamy sauce. I didn't think this needed any salt at all, so I didn't add any. I did add a drop of Tabasco though. I used 1 1/2 tsp flour and margarine, about 1/4 cup of soy milk, (think I added in more like 1/3 cup of the cheese, so I had to add a little more milk after all was melted b/c this thickened up very nicely), and micro'd the marg for 20 secs and a total of 1 minute (2 30 sec intervals) to melt the cheese. After I added the extra milk at the end, I zapped another 20 secs to rewarm. I was really craving cheese sauce, this did so nicely. I can just imagine how much more wonderful real cheese and milk would have been! Lol. This was yummy on carrot sticks. This would also be great w/celery sticks or any cooked veggie, and prob great on pretzels, too

      I have made cheese sauce on the stove before. Never again. This recipe turned out so yummy and easy. I added garlic salt instead of just regular salt and added a few drops of Tabasco sauce to give it a little more ZING. My family was trilled.

      So, it's Superbowl Sunday. We aren't having a party or anything, but wanted to eat the same stuff partiers were. I lost the grocery store debate about Velveeta - DH was sure we had some. Yep, no Velveeta. This was fast, easy, and successful. Mixed it with an equal amount of salsa for the Velveeta-famous dip. None of that plastic-y texture.

      Wonderful recipe! We added a little mozzerella and parmesan, and about 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper. Used it as a sauce for pillsbury breadsticks. Everyone LOVED it!!

      Delicious. Those who want a sharper taste may think of adding a dash of Worchestershire, a blob of Dijon or a generous pinch of mustard powder instead of more cheese. Just as vanilla enhances the taste of chocolate, any of those additions will "pop" the cheese flavour. Thanks for posting.

      Never making cheese sauce on the stove again. This is so much easier and tasted great.

      I wasn't really thrilled with this when it first came out of the microwave, but after it set for a while it definitely tasted much better. I used 1% milk and colby jack cheese. I'll be making this again. It's very easy and everyone liked it. Thanks for posting.

      Really great! I just added some ground mustard (personal preference), and it was delicious on rice.

      If you can melt chocolate in the microwave, why not make a cheese sauce? This was really easy and tasted quite good. I wanted to make a sauce that didn't need heavy cream. I only had non fat milk, and it worked fine. I used a little extra cheese and no salt. Yum!

      I love something I can make in the microwave while everything else is cooking on the stove top. Mine came out nice and thick, and I served it atop some veggies and on Potato Squashers. Thanks for posting!

      I finally made this a couple of nights ago for brocolli, and we loved it. Had some leftovers I put on scrambled eggs this morning, and still love it. Very easy, too.

      this was easy to make- not as thick or spicy as i'd like, but I added 2 teaspoons of cayenne, and it had the desired kick thanks for the recipe!

      Easier to do in a pot on the stove probably but good in any case.

      This was great! I used 2 cups sharp cheddar, and some tabasco to add flavor. Had it over a garlic chicken and veggie saute. Yum!
