Tip

Cheddar Tip

Select sharp cheddar when using packaged shredded cheese from recipes that you’d like to have a bolder flavor. If you will be shredding cheese at home from bulk cheddar, you can choose from mild, medium, sharp and extra sharp.

I agree with hammyjo62, the diced tomatoes did not need to be drained. This was very good but needed to be spiced up a little. Next time I think I will try Pepperjack cheese instead of cheddar. Maybe an envelope of onion soup as well. I thought it was good the way it is but needed a little kick,

It was a great idea, but the kids still wouldn't eat it.

Everyone in my family loved it. The cornbread bottom made it unique and the cajun seasoning was just enough spice without being to spicy for my 3 year old. Great all in one dish!

Think the tomatoes should have not been drained - I had to add water back & added a little salt & sugar to the mix. Reheats excellent
