This recipe was a disaster. The beans were burnt and the cheese was curdled. I will not be making this recipe again.

The beans were a little too mushy for my liking. I think I would cook them for a shorter amount of time next time.

This recipe was a little bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and it was much better.
