a few grinds of seasoning salt

3 cups of water (or stock)

2 large eggs
•
1 cup milk, milk of choice
•
1 1/2 cups grated Cheddar cheese – (or can use a stronger cheese of your choice too), + more for sprinkling- NOTE: (You may find you need more cheese, BUT I use this amount to still keep the dish ‘lighter’ yet very flavorful.)
