“I am working on using EVERYTHING I’ve got with groceries being so high, and this working great! I had extra broccoli that I needed to use up, and some random bits of sliced and shredded cheese. I also added in a leftover cooked chicken breast. It made easily 6” — a cook, 5.0★
“Been making this for years--for me, and not Hubs, who hates broccoli. I like spice and have done this with pepper jack, but nothing trumps the taste of sharp cheddar. Consequently, in addition to the diced onion, I saute some diced poblano and jalapeno chilis.” — a cook, 5.0★
