Every autumn, giant cheddar wheels, fittingly named Mammoth Cheddar, tower over our cheese department. Creating these spectacularly sized cheese wheels is an ultra-rare craft—a tradition carried on by just one family in Wisconsin—which makes it even more special when they arrive here at our stores in Washington!
Here are some of the cheesiest, coziest recipes to make with Mammoth Cheddar this fall.
Butternut Squash, Apple, And Cheddar Soup
An intriguing combination of butternut, apple, and cheddar creates a vibrant orange soup that tastes like autumn warmth. Cheese and apples pair perfectly on charcuterie boards and in lunch boxes—this is simply another way to enjoy the classic combo with a bit more nutty, savory depth!
Just roast your produce, blitz with cheddar and broth, then heat and serve. A dollop of sour cream and a sprinkle of cheese are the perfect finishing touches to this silky soup.
Baked Mac and Cheese
On a chilly evening, what’s better than a creamy, comforting bowl of mac and cheese? Our recipe uses a whopping 4 cups of cheese to showcase Mammoth Cheddar’s exceptionally rich flavor. A hint of hot sauce, a heap of crunchy panko, and a generous helping of butter bring old-school nostalgia to the dining table.
5-Ingredient Grilled Cheese and Tomato Soup
Quick and easy are the main objectives for this minimal-ingredient, maximum-flavor meal. Melted Mammoth Cheddar oozes between slices of toasty bread, while caramelized onions create an aromatic, slightly sweet base for a simplified tomato soup.
Chicken and Broccoli Casserole
One of our most popular recipes year after year! This single-dish casserole is loaded with chicken, broccoli, rice, and, of course, lots and lots of cheddar cheese. It’s the type of dinner that gives you a reason to look forward to the colder months, and it yields leftovers that just get better as the days go on.
Cheesy Potato Bites
Got leftover mashed potatoes? Here’s what to make! (Or if you find yourself potato-less, you can always pick some up from the grab-and-go department.) These bite-sized snacks get their cheesy heft from a mix of cheddar and Parmesan, speckled with herbs for a fresh touch. Try adding crispy prosciutto on top for an extra boost of savory flavor.
Skillet Chicken Nachos
This no-frills, speedy appetizer is about to become your go-to autumn hosting hack for all kinds of cozy gatherings. Simply pile the ingredients into a skillet and let the oven take care of the rest. You can make the nachos your own with toppings like diced avocado, chopped cilantro, or a squeeze of lime.
Cheddar and Chive Scones
When it comes to impressive homemade baked goods, it doesn’t get much easier than these cheddary scones. No fancy equipment required—just stir, knead, divide, and pop them in the oven. And don’t worry about biting into hard-as-a-hockey-puck scones—we intentionally designed this recipe to stay fluffy and moist. A sophisticated breakfast is nearly yours!
Sausage Kale Egg Cups
Cheesy egg cups are an efficient meal-prep pick because they’re straightforward to make, freeze well, and can be eaten on the go. Plus, they’re completely customizable. Prefer bacon? Use that instead of sausage. Want more veggies? Sauté some diced peppers or chopped asparagus and add them to the mix. The options are limitless!
