  1. I modified this a bit by making my own Cheese sauce instead of using the jarred sauce. I also slightly pureed the green and red peppers so that my toddler would eat it and I added chopped black olives to the mixture. It was a great dish that my toddler really liked and I felt guilt free with all the veggies in it. Thanks "Parsley" this will be in my family for years to come!
     
  2. Very cheesy and very delicious! This is true comfort food. My family loved it. I will make again!
     
  3. This was really full of cheese and very filling! I used 2 pounds of hamburger when I made mine. I can make this for DH and DS but my girls don't like a lot of cheese. thank you for sharing your recipe.
