Well, this is a good base recipe, but as is it was disappointing. We were glad to have some katsup in the fridge... my hubby said with out it he would have rated it a 2 but with it it's a 4. It just seemed to be lacking something. I am not giving up, though! Next time I will be adding garlic, way more cheese and some more seasonings.
