Equipment

• Small saucepan
• Cutting board
• Measuring cups and spoons
• Knives
• Small rimmed baking sheet

Ingredients

  

1x2x3x

• 1/4 Cup Fairlife 2% milk
• 1 oz. Mozzarella cheese, shredded small
• 1 oz. Monterey jack cheese, shredded small
• 1 oz. Smoked gouda cheese, shredded small
• 1/2 Tbsp Fresh cilantro, chopped small, (See Notes)
• 1 tsp Butter
• 1 tsp All-purpose flour
• 1/32 tsp Black pepper

Instructions

 

• Turn your oven's broiler on to heat up.
• In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, melt the butter; be careful not to burn it.
• Add the flour and whisk together. Whisk for about 30 seconds until a light golden-brown.
• Add the milk and continue to whisk for about 2 minutes. It will be slightly thickened.
• Remove from heat. Add the cheeses and whisk gently for about 2 minutes. If it's not completely melted, return to low heat and continue to mix until melted.
• Pour into an 8-oz oven-safe ramekin. Place the ramekin on a baking sheet, which makes it easier to handle, and place it under the broiler.
• Leave the oven door ajar and keep a steady eye on the tops. They can burn in seconds! This should take 1-2 minutes.
• Carefully remove from oven and top with the chopped cilantro. Serve immediately.

Notes

The cilantro makes a big difference to this recipe don’t skip it.

We like to serve tortilla chips with this as a snack, but it’s also great on tacos or burritos.
