Made this again last night and remembered that I never reveiwed it. Very easy to make and liked the addition of the tomato.Didn't have any Italian seasoning so I just used dried Basil and Oregano and was still very tasty. Thanks for sharing. -
REALLY good stuff! I made it JUST as posted and it was wonderful. Even my kids that don't usually like tomato thought it was good! -
I've made this several times, so I thought I'd better review it! 5-star delicious and so, so simple. The first time, I mixed mozzarella with the cheddar, but I find I like it best with only cheddar. Use ingredients as stated, especially the fresh basil. You won't be disappointed!
