Heat through in a saucepan, stirring occasionally and adding a little broth if necessary. Sprinkle with cheese. Yield: 6 servings.

I've had something similar before and it was pretty good. I can't remember exactly how the other was made buy I may give this one a try.

Yeah I don't think the cheese is really necessary and I would probably add some sliced onions

I was meaning I would replace the can ingredients with fresh. Onions sounds good also.
