[at-l] fond o'you

Is there anything you all don't know about my life?

Anyhow, son has a girlfriend he wants to (1) impress and (2) introduce to camping.  It's a one step at a time thing, so he's going out early to set up the drive-up campsite for Feb. 14 (Valentine's Day reminder to the guys on the list).  He's got candles, tablecloth, flowers.  He wanted to know what meal he should prepare.  I first suggested veggie hot dogs.  This idea was quickly dismissed as not special enough.  Then I thought of fondue (he's vegetarian).

I have a circa 1969 fondue pot and forks.  I have a couple of recipes for a cheese fondue, but they (and most I've found online) call for grueyre, which is very pricey.  I have some kirsch, which my recipe calls for, however, I'm hoping for a recipe with less expensive cheese.

Does anyone have a foolproof fondue recipe that uses less expensive cheese?  He's going to practice the fondue by fixing it for me for my birthday next week.
