Lovely and very easy to make. I did a bit of change I added chicken chunks instead of susage it was very nice. -
This was yummy and did kind of taste like nachos! I left out the jalapenos and used a blend of cheddar and jack cheese. Great! Thanks Ellie.

<p>I love cooking and trying different foods, but my favorite cookbooks are now Weight Watchers or low fat/low cal cookbooks as I tend to try and make low fat/low cal recipes. I lost over 90 pounds on Weight Watchers and have maintained for over a year now -- so my cooking/eating habits have changed drastically following my weight loss and to keep it off!</p>
