Enjoyed the mild and creamy flavor of the cheese with the garlic. I'd suggest going lighter with the garlic so it does not overpower the dish. Made for the *Recipe Swap 14* game 2008 in the Aussie/NZ forum. Our group was *The Kumara Kids* Group 28

Very good side dish. Quick and easy to make. We loved the garlicky flavor. Just needed a bit of salt. We'll eat this again. Thanx for posting.
