A mac and cheese recipe calls for 450g mozzarella, 225g cheddar, and 450g Colby Jack. The first two are covered but I'm lost on what to substitute for Colby Jack. It's supposedly a mix of Colby and Montgomery Jack, both of which are mild cheeses and melt well. What can I use as substitutes? Ideally something local instead of imported as I don't want to spend a lot. Thanks
 
Not here to help, But i have never had mac and cheese that was good, all tasted yuck to me.

That is all, TNX
 
Seems Checkers has Colby and WW has Monterey.

I didn't realize your cooking skills were this terrible. Have you considered searching YouTube before making MacNCheese so many times yourself ?

Never made mac and cheese, always get it at restaurants and been disappointed each time.
 
Any nicely matured cheddar is the bomb for mac n cheese. Dont need anything else.
 
Try add some Grana Padano to your mix, or Parmesan.
They bring a ton of flavor.

As a cheese topping cheat for brocolli, milk, Padano and cornflour .... takes 10 minutes, and you are done.

Colby and Monterey cheese is k#k ... for me anyway, but popular in the US, because they are seen as American.
They just dont have the same strong flavor as the SA cheeses do.

I miss SA cheese. It is something SA does really well IMHO.
