Cheese-block-mozzarella

Note to self.
16 oz. block of mozzarella cheese yields 4 C. shredded.
I was at the grocery getting ingredients to make a lasagna for my sister and had a dilemma over cheese. I have dilemma's over the silliest things.
I like to buy cheese in a block and shred it at home. Less ingredients that way and it just seems so fresh. Plus it makes me feel like I have done something worthwhile for my family. I knew I needed X number of cups of cheese for the dish.
I didn't want to buy pre-shredded but I didn't know how much shredded cheese a block yielded. So above is my answer for mozzarella cheese.
Stay turned for more cheese adventures. I am becoming more and more interested in cheeses. There are so many.
