I made this, a serving for two, with leftover mashed potatoes, that I heated up in the microwave. I then added some extra milk, the cheese and the garlic powder. I then mixed the melt butter with the crackers and topped the potatoes and then put in the oven to bake. I was flipping between 4 and 5 stars, as I am used to gravy with mashed potatoes so not as dry, but also like all the ingredients and the two different textures. Next time I would add some seasoned salt and more butter, as Kittencal did for the potatoes!! Thanks for posting Redsie. Made for Stars Tag.

Canadian girl that loves to cook for herself and for everyone around her!! I always enjoyed cooking but more so since I started taking better care of myself by eating healthier food (I am a Weight Watchers Lifetime member!). I still love my chocolate though!
