This is a very nice quick meal and is great for when you dont want to cook but dont want to get takeaway either.

We really enjoyed this a lot! I loved the addition of sun-dried tomatoes (I used the kind stored in olive oil) and fresh basil. I just used some cheddar for the cheese, but I think it would be especially good with feta. This couldn't have been easier to make, and it did indeed make a good lunch with some salad. Thanks for posting the recipe; I'm sure I'll be making it again.
