Like make a crepe and put cheddar in it? Like a French quesadilla?
Yes, basically.
Pizza.
I have thought about cheddar pizza a couple of times and my brain always shuts off.
I like to do a cheddar sauce instead of tomato and then top with mozz, cumbled beef, and bacon bits.
Instead of tomato sauce? So like a cheesy bread with meat toppings people might do if they got heartburn from a tomato sauce? Are we talking like pizza crust then or like focaccia?
I just created a bluesky account called Cooking Challenge If you want to go over there and play.
If this is what you're restricted to, (ie. no eggs, milk, spices/herbs, etc.) then I'd say you were looking at a chance at a fondant-texture cheese dough, if you're patient? Essentially, a roux to a Beschamel without milk, but it'll take a steady heat and a non-stop, gentle stir/folding.
I'd start by rendering the oils from ~⅓ of the cheese, and begin the roux from there. Then, slowly and completely, melt only enough grated from the ⅔ to emulsify without clumping.
Continue until the roux won't take any more grated without breaking (you'll see oils sweating/escaping on the surface, just dust w/ sifted flour and fold until absorbed evenly)
Assume a basic pantry. So yes, eggs, milk, herbs, spices, baking powder, yeast, butter, etc.
