Cheese Sauce

Cheese sauce is a smooth, savory sauce made from cheese and dairy (often combined with milk, butter, and a thickener). It’s commonly used as a dip for chips or vegetables, poured over nachos, pasta, baked potatoes, or added to casseroles and sandwiches. Users often track cheese sauce to log portion sizes and nutrients—such as calories, fat, sodium—and to note allergens or recipe differences between homemade and commercial varieties.
