I made this and my whole family loved it-even my daughter who doesn't usually eat seafood! It's a great recipe for the whole family! I hope you enjoy it as much as i did!

I consider myself to be quite a good cook so I don't think my skills were the problem here - I found this incredibly bland and quite unpleasant and I put the lot in the bin!!!
Not Bad

Try Sprinkling Potato Crisps On Top Before Cheese
And Add A Pinch of Chilli Onto Prawns

LOVELY
