Quick Microwave or stovetop cheese sauce

This is a handy recipe to use up your small scraps of cheese accumulated over the week or for trays of hearty Macaroni and Cheese casseroles.

Kids love macaroni and cheese and this sauce includes real cheese; making it a good source of protein in addition to the carbohydrates from the pasta.  Suggest serving some fresh fruit or rough-cut vegetables to produce a quick; balanced meal.

This sauce can be prepared in the microwave or on the stovetop; if you are making it on the stovetop simply replace heating for 1 minute and repeat to mix in sauce pot stirring constantly.
