Thanks for posting, BreathesGirl :)


Good job


It definitley looks good. I wonder if this would also be great with bacon... I feel like it will really be a blast!!! Thanks for sharing... =)


Yvw:). There is ham in it so the bacon might add a crunch:).
Not too long ago I made it with a seafood medley and ymmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!


I plan on making this tonight, what kind of cheese did you use for the grated cheese? Thanks

I have also used left over roast beef.
I have also made this as a strictly vegetarian dish--not vegan since it has milk.


I might try corn starch in place of the flour to thicken. Might cut down if not eliminate the lumps.


Corn starch is also good for those with a flour allergy :).
