I loved the rich, cheesy taste of the three cheeses. The recipe was very quick and easy to make, which is a nice bonus - almost as easy as the box stuff when you use pre-shredded cheese. Next time I will use 2 tbsp butter and 2 tbsp flour with the 2 cups of milk. This will cut back a little on the fat, and we thought it was just a bit too thick and floury. I believe this adjustment will be just right. Thanks for sharing.
