I made this for my family tonight and they all loved it. I added more cheese than the recipe asked for though.

We really enjoy this recipe. My grandaughter is a rather picky eater, but she really liked it. I added chili beans and onions and have ideas for other additions.

This a great recipe! Very easy to make and it's a real croud pleaser. My husband actually asks me to make this. (He doesn't usually request a meal.) I have even given the recipe to friends.
