This is a lovely cheese sauce on toast. It was my mom's recipe. She used to make this when she had to feed a family of 9 with very few resources. However, I remember this as some of the best comfort food. Serve over buttered toast. For an extra special dish, we like to top it with a fried egg.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more spices next time.

I'm allergic to dairy, so I used a vegan cheese in this recipe. It turned out great!
