The Scouts of Troop 55 are cooking aficionados. We put our supply of dutch ovens to use at almost every outing. Each December, in a Troop 55 tradition, we have a troop-wide “Cooking Competition” at St. Francis Church. The recipes and meal favorites celebrate the diversity and culture heritage of our troop.

In a large saucepan, melt butter into cream over low heat. Add salt, pepper and garlic salt. Stir in cheese over medium heat until melted; this will thicken the sauce.
