    Great and Easy

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    I doubled the recipe, amount turned out great for two people plus a bit left over for lunch the next day. I didnt have... pimentos so I used them from a can, about 5 tsp and added them when I added the cream and stock. I used a bit more cheese two, a little less than two cups. Overall very delicious and easy. Croutons were great with it too. Cube some left over bread, drizzle with olive oil and lots of salt, pepper and garlic powder. Cook at 350 til brown. Good!

    You could try cheshire or double glouster (sp?) if they have english cheese. Maybe a sharp provolone or fontina but I don't... know about the meltability of these. Ask at the cheese shop for ideas. Your so lucky to be in Italy! Read more
