    Followed recipe, but cheese and milk in double boiler and once it melted it was lumpy. Not sure if milk curdled or if it was cheese. Just regular Kraft American Singles. Not sure what went wrong. I'm at high altitude, maybe that was the cause. Wish I could have got it to come out smooth. :(

    I like that it didn't get that cheese-skin that quesos often have, but there was something missing that I just couldn't put my finger on. I made the recipe as directed. Maybe next time I'll double the veggies & saute them before I add them to the cheese.

    Mmmm! Delicious. Definitely will be making this again!! i used white cheddar instead of american so next time im going to use heavy cream instead of the milk to make it creamier. Also, like others said, i am going to cook the veggies before hand.
