notes
- Check this halfway through the cooking time to make sure your cheese isn't going to burn. You can cover it loosely with foil if this is a problem.
- If you are a garlic lover you can add 1-2 cloves of crushed garlic to the mix for flavour.
- If I don't have fresh tomatoes I just use a tin of diced tomatoes instead. This makes this dish a great pantry meal.
