This was a really good dish! The creamy texture and the cheese were just perfect together. I didn’t have Gruyere, so I used cheddar and it still turned out great! Yum!
I’m so glad you liked it! Cheddar is a great substitution for Gruyere, I might try that next time too!
I dunno, using cheddar instead of Gruyere seems kinda risky. But hey, if you liked it, more power to ya!
