- NOTES : My husband LOVED this. Despite our meatfree household, those meat instincts are still very much alive in him. I liked it too. There was just sufficient cheese to give it the cheese taste. This is a good recipe to make if you have company staying with you over holidays because it just takes a can of this and which, so you can make it while chatting. Since the veggies are still frzn when you pop it into the oven I thought which it would take more time to heat, but it didn'teaspoon Enjoy.
