finish product, minus tomato's* |
now for my own little notes. we did not use ham, i think the stuff is nasty so we went with turkey sausage, and used 1 1/4 cup. I have been told this recipe would be delightful with any meat replacement though, such as bacon. or as my grandma suggested you can leave it out all together. We ended up using only 2 cups of cheese, but this recipe is really based on your taste, so if you think you need a bit more or less of something, change it up. it turned out really good though. we made four 9x13 pans to feed 45 people and we had the perfect amount!
*I also left out the tomato's because i'm allergic, but we had fresh salsa for people to add to their dish and they loved it even more!
