This is a family favourite here. It's easily customizable too. To make it lower calorie and lower fat substitute skim milk and lowfat mozzarella cheese for the milk and cheese.

Or if you wish to bulk it up with even more protein add a well-rinsed can of black beans. (You could even add chicken if you wanted to.)

Number of Servings: 6
