This sauce was excellent- I put my boyfriend in charge (a non-cook); he messed everything up, the order of ingredients, the timing, the measurements- it still turned out amazing! a great cheese sauce for everything I can think of out side of the breakfast enchiladas :-)

Oh, and I used white cheddar cheese to make the enchilada toppings (fresh tomatoes/hot peppers) pop- looked like Christmas!

Really bland

The sauce was really very bland. It needed a bit more salt and quite a fair amount of black pepper, cayenne pepper, and red pepper flakes to give it much-needed flavor. I would reduce the amount of roux (butter and flour) next time as it is very thick.

Awesome Sauce
