Mmmm, yummy! Was a bit wet and I had to drain it off, but did not detract from the flavour. Very tasty.

Also, I added a touch of cream cheese to mine to try and thicken up the wet sauce. It was a nice little addition.

Very tasty but a LOT of cheese in the recipe. I used a little less and next time will use even less than that. It did taste good though! 4 stars.
