The Nacho Cheese Sauce recipe was passed down from my grandmother to my dad in 1984. My grandmother visited Nashville, Tennessee, in 1972, went to a restaurant and saw a nacho sauce in the window, and tried it. She then came back to Shelby, North Carolina, and started making the sauce for the family at Halloween, Christmas, Thanksgiving, Easter, and the Fourth of July. She didn't want to copy the ingredients from the restaurant, so she added two more ingredients to the recipe, which were Rotel Diced Tomatoes and Green Chilies and sausage.
When my parents got married in 1984, my grandmother passed the nacho sauce recipe down to my dad, and he has been making it ever since for different occasions. He makes it for our Christmas party we go to every year at my godmothers' house and for the 4th of July when we go to the lake house in Clemson, South Carolina. I know when talking to my dad about the family recipe, he told me that he would make it for any occasion if anybody asked him to make it. For a couple of my birthdays, I remember him making it for everyone because I asked him if he would make it for us. So, this is one of our family's most enjoyable recipes for us to eat because we can have it for any occasion, and just knowing that my dad makes it for us is even better.
Right now, I know how to make it, but never have before, but my dad said that he would pass it down to me in a couple of years to keep it going through the family. This Christmas, my dad is going to be making it again, and I can't wait until he does. It's one of my favorite recipes, and I will always enjoy it until the day I die.
