Powdered cheese

[blissful]

I buy pounds of the cheddar cheese powder....because...when we were growing up, my mom would let us make popcorn, then put butter on it and then sprinkle the orange cheese on it, yum! Now I have my son's addicted to it too. And we like parmesan cheese on buttered popcorn too--we had that for dinner last night *bad mom*~Bliss

I know this may sound weird but.... I have about 10 packets of the powdered cheese that comes in the mac & cheese boxes, any suggestions on what to do with it?

Popcorn!!
French fries...

If you've ever had the biscuits at Red Lobster, I think that's what they put in.
And I think they are good. My biscuits come out like SINKERS! I think I work the dough too much.

My idea; after your scrambled eggs start to come together, sprinkle alittle over the top.

Buy a box of elbow macaroni and make more mac and cheese.

For that matter, have DH make a box of mac and cheese for himself and cook some separately purchased macaroni for the little one.

Lol, thanks Andy, but I was looking for suggestions other than the obvious

Thank you everyone for your ideas!!!!!!!

I remember a boss of mine making chip dip with powdered cheese, a carton of sour cream and a bottle of salsa.

Your boss was McGyver?

The voice of reason.
Not to be confused with Kathe's husband

I love plain pasta, too, but it never occurred to me to cook the pasta out of a box of mac and cheese and leave the cheese packet. That's probably a good thing

If it hasn't been suggested (I didn't read page three), mix in a packet or two with a meatloaf.

oops, just saw the date....

give hime a paperclip, string, & a few eggs, & he'll produce a beautiful souffle!!

Blissful, where can you find just the powdered cheese?
I'd love to try them in scrambled eggs, or mashed potatoes.

GrantsKat, or B'sgirl, I'm sure the box has a toll-free

# you could call and ask for Technical Services, or Product information. B's, tell them your situation and would like to buy their product, but........
Who know's maybe free samples, or coupons.
Good luck.

I haven't tried these personally, I bought my powdered cheese from King Arthur Flour. I may order some from this link too.

Holy Cow, LC. What a list. What would I call the powdered cheese that we're speaking of here? Cheddar?

thanks for the lead.

add some hand lotion, a drill with beater attachment, and a cigar, and he'll make an impecable eggs benedict with smoked ham.

I bought cheese powder two ways. One is cheddar cheese powder-just spray dried cheese, one is cheese powder but it has whey in it. You'll have to read the fine print of ingredients to know which one you are getting. I get it from waltonfeed.com and you can get both there. The other one I've tried is from a grocery off amazon.

the sam's club near me does not have it . Not all sam's stock the same things. If I bought the 6 lb one, I would keep maybe a pound in the fridge and the rest in the freezer. I use them for mac and cheese, dip, popcorn , and other things I can't remember at the moment. Now I remember.. some in a NYT bread dough and tried it in bread machine bread.

Not that there's anything wrong with 6 lbs of cheese powder that share with family and friend. We are the ones that make cheese biscuits, crackers, put it on popcorn and in potatoes. Want some? It's good stuff.
