What is manchengo cheese? I’m not familiar with it.

It’s a Spanish cheese. Don’t remember if it’s a cow or sheep cheese. It’s wonderful. I would consider it a mild cheese with a somewhat nutty flavor. Any deli section of a grocery store should have it.

I can’t seem to find it at the natural food store I usually go to. I’ll keep my eye out for it and just use some Parmesan for now. Thank you!

My garden is bursting with zucchini right now, so I am glad for this recipe! There is plenty of basil in my garden too.
