@Porthos, If you're grating rather than shredding with the food processor, does that mean you are using the steel blade, rather than a disc?  Does the Monterey Jack grate nicely that way?  The kind I usually get is significantly softer than cheddar and I feel that it might get clumpy, but I'm just speculating.

 

 

@Fernwood, I have always cut Monterey Jack or Mozzarella into large chunks (which will fit in the feed tube) and put those in the freezer for 20-30 minutes. Then the cheese is hard enough to shred well with the Cuisinart medium shredding blade. Give the blade a quick rinse under hot water to remove any stuck lumps and put as is into the dishwasher.
