I hope that me and sugarpea are not the only two to make this because this is great! I also hope that the 9 points is not turning anyone away because it is worth it!!! For those of you who crave something, chessy, patsa-ey, and chicken-ey, you will love this. i added sauted mushrooms and garlic before i added the cheese at the end. next time i will use garlic salt instead of reg. salt and i will either add some fresh herbs or italian seasoning.! Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe! We will be making this again next week. :)
