This was fantastic. It's so easy, I was able to make it for a weeknight supper with my 4 year old helping to cut the mozzarella cubes. I don't understand the "medium" difficulty rating on this one. I will say that the mozzarella cubes melted into some pretty big globs, so next time I will add last after the rest has cooled a bit.
