equivalent of cheez whiz..
« on: March 31, 2006, 10:18:09 AM »
Ok, blame this on Meshell, but now I'm craving cheez whiz.......there are a load of recipes online to make homemade, which I would be willing to do, but they all call for processed cheese, like 'american'. What could I use as a substitute? Any ideas? If it turns out well, I'll can some up, and start the pass it forward line......lol. :D

Still tired of coteries and bans. But hanging about anyway.

As a cheese lover in the extreme (I am appalled by 'Cheese Whizz'...it sounds absolutely vile, and must be cruel to the cheese!  ;D

It sounds as though getting some of those nasty plastic bright yellow cheese slices and microwaving them would have the same effect, so you could try that.

(Or just buy a nice Double Gloucester instead!!!)

I have to agree.... but I realize it must be comfort food thing for some people.

I just can't see myself eating processed cheese.  Though Meshell's discussion of Bisquick in another thread has me thinking about those REd Lobster cheese biscuits... I now have to go find me a recipe! Or yum... cheese scones!

Oh I was thinking of those Red Lobster biscuits too!  The good thing about Cheez Whiz or Velveeta that I remember was for making queso dip (with the Rotel tomatoes & chilis), or mac & cheese.  But over here, I've done mac & cheese by making a sauce with milk, butter & double gloucester -- and it was even better.  Cheese Whiz & Velveeta are too salty.

This is how we make it and my kids prefer it over Kraft Dinner!  It's a frequent request in our house.  they still like their cheez whiz though - they eat it on hot dogs and hamburgers!
