| This is my favorite cheese sauce recipe. It's perfect on pasta when you're in the mood for mac ân' cheese, but it's also fantastic over potatoes au gratin or steamed vegetables. One night, when my fridge was lookin' pretty empty, I poured this sauce over sweet potato slices and vegan chorizo, baked it, and ended up with one awesome casserole.
