Grandma's Secret Tip
Grandma's Secret Tip
If she didn't have Cheddar on hand, Grandma used most any mild or sharp cheese. I liked it with American cheese; my brother favored it with Gouda.
Great Pairings
California Grilled Chicken
Coarse-grained mustard provides a pleasing flavor and texture to this dish. If it is not a staple in your pantry, use Dijon mustard instead for an equally good flavor at a lower cost.
