I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out great! The only thing I would change is to use a different type of cheese. I used cheddar, but I think a Mexican cheese blend would be better.

This recipe was a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and salsa, and it was much better. I would recommend using a flavorful ground beef and adding some extra seasonings to taste.
