      Do you also add the 1 can of milk for the cheese soup? Or just the contents of the can?

      Thanks!

      Can I use fresh cauliflower and broccoli in these cheesy recipes? Would it make a difference in the cook time? Thanks for beautiful and delish recipes.

        Hi Sheila ~ I honestly haven’t tried, but I think it should work just fine. I’d just suggest to shorten the cook time and keep a close eye on it to see once the cheese has been well melted. If you try it, let me know how it turns out! 😉
