I have been making this recipe for more than 20 years. I still have the original from the back of a can of College Inn broth but this year I had problems. No matter what brand of mozzarella I use it will not melt and I have these coagluated clumps of cheese. Is anyone else running into this issue? I've tossed dinner in the trash three times in the past 8 months.

Hi! Is this the exact recipe from the can... with tomatoes in it? I've been searching for it for years but it's not on the College Inn website! I don't remember the tomatoes but maybe I omitted them!

Try buying mozzarella (unshredded). Shred it yourself. Packaged shredded cheese is coated with something and doesn't melt correctly.

I use parmesan instead of mozzarella.
