Tip

Shred and Freeze Cheese

It’s usually cheaper to buy cheese in blocks than in shredded form. So I purchase large quantities of cheddar, Monterey Jack and mozzarella, then shred them myself in my food processor. I store the shredded cheese in the freezer in heavy-duty resealable plastic bags, so I have it at my fingertips whenever it’s needed. —Evelyn O., Parma, Ohio

This was a good twist on Mexican food. I didn't use all of the sour cream/salsa mixture because it was kind of runny and seemed to make the crust a tad soggy. We only used 1/2 to 2/3 of it. Maybe a chunky salsa would remedy that? Otherwise, we thought it was good.
