Ricos Gourmet Nacho Cheese Sauce 107 oz.

I love nacho cheese. No, I mean I LOVE nacho cheese. Dip some fries in the cheese. Put it on your chips. Make double decker tacos. I love nacho cheese. But my frugal heart often balked at the hefty price tag on a tiny can of cheese, so I'd often go without. One day, I saw this massive can of my favorite brand and wondered... could I FREEZE this cheese? Would it be good when I thawed it out? Well, my friends, I took the $10 hit to experiment, and I'm happy to say that YES, you can freeze this cheese, and YES, it's just as good when thawed and reheated! Here's what I do... I use Great Value Quart Freezer Bags and put about 16oz into each bag. I put all of those bags into a large GV Gallon Freezer Bag and put them all in the freezer. Bam! Now I have 6 pounds of glorious cheese waiting for me whenever the whim strikes. If I know that I want cheese tomorrow, I'll thaw it in the fridge overnight, but generally I will put it in a bowl still frozen solid and warm it slowly, with the defrost function of the microwave, stirring every few minutes. Generally, this will take 10-15 minutes, but that's okay, because nobody wants scorched nacho cheese! It looks gross at first, but trust the process, it will come together again! Once thoroughly thawed and slightly warmed up, I may add a touch of milk to thin it out, and then cook on 70% power until it's hot and bubbly and ready for whatever needs a blanket of cheesy love.

I love this nacho cheese sauce. Perfect flavor! I use this for nachos, but also in tacos. I added it in the burritos I meal prepped and froze. I froze the extra sauce in small containers for future use and it did not affect the texture or consistency of it at all. While the size of this seems extreme, it's a much better value for your money, and again, it freezes perfectly.
