Good as a quick side, I like a cheese top so used my fall-back cheese and breadcrumbs which worked well. - 10 Feb 2012
Great no bake recipe. The whole family loved it, including my one year old. - 15 Jun 2010
this was very delicious, added a but more milk. I packed the cheese down when I was grating, so it came out more cheesier, also I would advise to wisk every 1 minute when in the micro, this makes it less lumpy. - 09 May 2004 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
