I love melted cheese.  Love. It. The flavour, the texture and the gooey, strings of melted cheese are the way to my heart.  From traditional uses like nachos and lasagna to fondue and poutine, melted cheese plays a key role in many of my favourite dishes.  This meal features a fantastic new product designed to amplify melted cheese in all of your favourite recipes. Kraft Shredded Cheese with a Touch of Philadelphia  is convenient, creamy and melts with perfection.  It is easy to work with, delicious and my family went crazy for it.

I made two family favourite recipes, Escargot and Garlic Bread.  Each featuring Kraft Creamy Herb & Garlic Shredded Cheese with a Touch of Philadelphia.  While many believe escargot to be fancy restaurant food, it is simple and easy to make at home.
