Finely Shredded Lite Mexican Style Cheese Blend

""How do I love thee? Let me count the shreds" ~with apologies to Elizabeth Barrett Browning Trader Joe’s Finely Shredded Lite Mexican Blend is our ideal blend for dishes in need of a little Mexican flair, with reduced fat Cheddar, Monterey Jack, Asadero and Queso Quesadilla cheeses. It’s a blend that’s unique to Trader Joe’s, and because of this boasts a flavor profile just as unique as our brand. The Jack, Asadero and Queso Quesadilla are mild, while the Cheddar adds a bit of a bite with every mouthful. All of the cheeses are well-known for their meltability, which makes them a particularly potent pairing to dishes like burritos, enchiladas, quesadillas and tacos. And don’t let the name make you feel like you need to limit yourself to Mexican dishes. This blend is excellent in plenty of salads, atop any of our boxed soups, and makes a distinctively flavored grilled cheese sandwich."
