Instead of adding bacon bits, bring on half a stick of butter and either a half roll of crushed Ritz crackers or six to eight sample-size cracker packets. Mix these in a small microwaveable bowl and microwave for about thirty seconds after you’ve finished the Broccoli, then, pour over the top of your main dish, along with the cheese, for an additional sixty seconds. Storing Cheese for the Rest of the Term: Cheese is one of those foods that you would think lasts forever, but it doesn’t. Often, even unopened cheese will start to form mold in your refrigerator. To make the most out of your investment, limit the exposure to air and moisture. Soft cheeses like brie or Muenster will go bad before harder cheeses like Swiss or cheddar. Soft cheeses need to be wrapped tightly in cellophane to keep water and air out, but hard cheeses should be wrapped in parchment paper instead. If you see that your cheese is beginning to mold, throw it away.
