    This was great. I did add a few dashes or worcestershire sauce and a little extra hot sauce. I was out of parmasan so I topped it with mozzarella instead.

    So cheesy and good - easy to make, too. I added quite a few dashes of hot sauce, and next time will probably do even more (we love spicy), and maybe even a dash or two of worchestershire sauce to deepen the flavor. I only had a 3 qt. baking dish, but the entire recipe fit in the dish and baked up just great. To get a bit more browning, I broiled it on high for about 4 minutes. Delicious recipe that we'll be snacking on all day while watching football (and napping, no doubt). Thanks for posting this - really, really tasty!
