Notes

This is a recipe we do often at cooking presentations - it is easy and quick to make.

For the shelf stable cheese pick up wheels of Laughing Cow wedges. Often sold with regular cheese it does not require refrigeration till the wedges inside are opened. They make a great French Onion flavor that works well in mashed potatoes.
