Welsh Rabbit (serves 4)

2 Tblsp butter
4 cups (1 lb.) shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1/2 tsp dry mustard
dash of cayenne pepper (optional)
1/2 cup half and half
2 eggs, slightly beaten

In large glass bowl or measure melt butter in microwave.

Add cheese and cook on medium, stirring occasionally, until cheese is melted.

Stir in Worcestershire sauce, mustard and pepper. Combine cream and eggs; stir into cheese.

Cook until thick, stirring frequently. (This never works for me, so I usually put the cream and eggs into my food processor bowl, add the cheese mix and whirl until it is smooth. Then I return it to the microwave.)

MACARONI:
Make macaroni (about 12 oz) and use as a sauce, stirring together well.

WELSH RAREBIT:
toast 4 English muffins. Top each half with a slice of tomato, add sauce, top with crisp bacon strip.
