This recipe was the result of wanting a relatively quick and easy dish in the evening after a long and busy day, but still wanting something satisfying and delicious.

It’s hard to go wrong with any dish involving melted cheese, and this one comes together quickly with just a few ingredients requiring little in the way of prep.

It would be great served with crusty bread but I went in a low carb direction by serving it with lightly steamed, tender stalks of broccolini.
