I made this last night. It was devoured by adults and middle school aged kids. I was pleasantly surprised at how much the kids enjoyed it. I used Rotel (original) in place of plain tomatoes. I used vermont white cheddar for the cheese. Served it with bread and cooked shrimp. Absolutely delicious!! So easy to prepare. The butter and tomato saute smelled wonderful. Overall a great recipe. Will definitely make it again.

Very busy nanny/au pair, working for a very rich and snooty family, in a very large home, in a very snooty village. Just in case my employer comes here, please don't ask where I am from, or I'll be sacked like the last nanny was. ;-) I take care of 4 gorgeous, and darling kids. 3 girls and a boy. The boy is the youngest (and my favorite). They are great children, very, very active. (Hyper)
I love to cook. I guess that's a given, why else would I be here. Part of my job is also to prepare meals for the family. The more they like my food, the longer I get to stay. (just a little joke)
On my day off, I usually go out to the cinema or some dance clubs with the other au pairs in this town. That's about it I think.
