Cheesy, creamy broccoli soup is a family-friendly dish that's a great way to get kids to eat their veggies. The crispy Cheddar croutons add a satisfying crunch. For a lighter finish, replace the sour cream with Greek yogurt.
Serve Savoury Cheddar Cheesecake Spread with buttery crackers and sliced baguette. With its perfect balance of creamy, spicy, sweet and savoury, there will be no leftovers. It just gets better with every bite. Look for peach chutney in specialty food stores. Substitute mango chutney if you can't find peach.
This rich and intensely flavoured English-style soup will become a winter favourite. Use a three- to five-year-old Cheddar for the best flavour. At the end of cooking, adjust salt to taste if necessary, because the salt content of the cheese and broth varies. Pass the pepper mill at the table.
Everyone will enjoy this nutty, full-flavoured cheese fondue. For a milder, sweeter taste, try the Cheddar and Emmenthal variation. For the best results, make the fondue in a fondue pot directly on the stove top then transfer it to the burner at the table.
This side dish is a family recipe on my husband's side. It steals the show from the ham or turkey every time we have them. My Mother in law created this potato masterpiece that I call "Cheddar and Chive Potatoes" I believe it is best served as part of a turkey or ham dinner. Will also work with roasts as well. Enjoy!
Irish red ale, named for the hue that results from adding roasted barley during brewing, lends a slightly sweet, toasted malt flavour to this update on traditional potato soup. Mature Irish Cheddar gives it a rich, sharp finish.
Who doesn't like cauliflower and cheese? This is why I made it into a soup. I use 1% milk instead of cream to lower the fat. If you would rather have Cream of Broccoli & Cheddar, just replace the amount of cauliflower with broccoli or mix them up. Whichever way you you make it, everything is good with cheese!
Twice-baked potatoes are transformed into a nourishing main with the addition of colourful veggies and gooey Cheddar. It's easier to remove the flesh while the potatoes are warm, so use a small spoon (such as a teaspoon) to scoop them as soon as they're cool enough to handle. Cost: $2.85/serving
This dish is a spin off the classic comfort food of macaroni and cheese, almost everything is different, except the cheese part. I was inspired by the wonderful complementary flavours of tart apples and strong Canadian cheddar. I decided to pair this with the yummy Italian potato pasta, Gnocchi, to reflect upon the diversity in ?Canadian? cuisine. I also added some red peppers for color and vitamin C! I served this with a baby spinach green salad with blackberries and Balsamic Vinaigrette.
Tilapia is an inexpensive and widely available white fish. It is mildly sweet, fine in texture and sold as fresh or frozen. This is a simple recipe that can be thrown together during a busy weeknight with common ingredients found in your refrigerator.
