I didn't use the green pepper and we thought the sauce was very tasty. I did use two cups of mozzarella and cheddar mix for the cheese. 1/2 cup of cheese wouldn't have been enough for us. Once cut the casserole was really watery. We enjoyed it though. The longer it sat, the better it was.

Full of flavor...although we were hoping for a bit more...like red pepper flakes...or maybe some jalapeno's...it just needed a little kick...it's easy to prepare and we almost always have all of the ingredients available...thanks for posting! :)
