Not in the grid because no step names them: gouda, pre-grated, white aged cheddar.

Grid inferred from the written steps.

whisk the packet sauce mix into the milk, bring it to a boil while whisking, then remove from heatpacket sauce mix
pour the hot sauce over the potatoes and layer part of the cheese between the potato layers
cover with foil and bake at 200 °C for 30 minutes
remove the foil and bake another 20 minutes until browned and bubbling
rest uncovered for 15 minutes before cutting

milk replaced the packet's 250 ml water
cheddar was kept to roughly 30% of the gouda because too much made the sauce grainy
taco seasoning was kept off the shared bake because it conflicted with the packet spices
