My Nana and then my Mom used to make this when I was a kid and until my mom was too old and I have never been able to find her recipe. I have a suspicion that she used Velveeta cheese (I know, yuck). Hers was kind of lumpy (in a good way) and maybe that was the bread crumbs? I am going to try to make this soon. I hope and pray it tastes like they used to make it. I miss them so much.

I loved this as a kid, good for a gloomy night on some nice toast. Not very nutritious but not everything has to be! It will remind me of my Gram. Thank you!

I don't have bread crumbs. Is there a way to make this with flour? I feel like I saw a version like that somewhere. Anybody know?

Good cheese sauce. It's also good on eggs, ham and English muffins for a cheesy Eggs Benedict.
