  8. I fixed this dish. It was very good. I replaced the garlic powder with minces garlic. I don't really do spicey foods so I replaced the red pepper flakes with Tony Chachere's creole seasoning. I topped it with the cheese but I put it the oven for about 10 minutes. It makes a lot so I put the extra in a container and put it in the freezer so for another time I'll just get it out and put cheese on it. Dinner! Thank you for sharing you recipe.
