The Holidays are Approaching...

Follow me Cheese opened its first retail shop at the Shoppes on Fatherland in East Nashville on August 10, 2017.  We are excited to be experiencing our first holiday season. We'd like to give a big "THANKS" to all of our customers who have supported us so far. As we learn and grow we will continue to expand our offerings based on what we have learned from our customers and plan to extend our reach.  We have already begun to support our community and those non-profits that have the common mission of GIVING year-round and will always remember that GIVING, even in the smallest form is what this time of year and being a small business is all about.  Together we can make our community a better place.

Today, we are offering a Cyber Monday Discount of 15% for all items available for sale on our website.  Just enter code:  CyberMonday2017 at checkout.  Also, we have gift packs ready in our store.  They range from $15-$30 in price and are a great gift for any foodie. 

The kick-off to the 2017 holiday season at our shop was an event called Fa La La Fatherland that took place on Saturday, November 25. The Shops at Fatherland as a whole offered giveaways, discounts, food trucks, and holiday cheer. Our shop offered cheese samples as well as a pumpkin macaroni and cheese. The simple recipe which we made in our slow cooker is below:

• Half stick of butter
  
• Quart of half and half
  
• Salt
  
• Pepper
  
• Worcestershire sauce
  
• One container Pumpkin Spice Cream Cheese (we found it at ALDI)
  
• 1 lb noodles (we used small shells)
  

Simple combine the butter, half and half, salt, pepper, Worcestershire sauce, and cream cheese in a slow cooker on low. Let cook on low for an hour. Then add about 2 cups of shredded cheese (we used Lindale Gouda and Latteria Soresina Parmesan Reggiano that we had in the shop). Let the cheese melt and then just add the noodles.  We do not pre-cook the noodles and it only takes about 30 minutes for them to soften the perfect al dente consistency.
