17 Cheesy Recipes That Prove Cheese Makes Everything Better — Even Broccoli
I'm a born and raised Wisconsin girl, which means I can't go a full week without a few cheesy recipes. If you're unfamiliar with the Midwestern state, there's really only one thing you need to know: we're obsessed with cheese. Seriously, our food pyramid basically consists of cheese, and cheese alone. Heck, we even wear cheese on our head to root for our NFL team.
Needless to say, I'm a firm believer that cheese can improve essentially any food or recipe. I would probably even eat grass if it was covered in a nice layer of gooey cheddar.
Don't believe me that cheese can make any dish even more delicious? Flip through these cheesy recipes and then see if you still disagree. I'm willing to bet you'll change your mind — and drool all over yourself in the process.
